A simple question: how will netman choose between two or more
available ESSIDs? Will it just go for the one providing a stronger
signal? And what if the signal-strength-based ranking keeps changing?
Will netman go on and off to chase the ESSID witht the strongest
signal?

Would it be possible to "force" the usage of a given ESSID in
such cases?
