Exactyly my needs also. This is why I prefer wicd. But wicd has one
disadvantage: it takes a long time to reconnect. Looks like it first
scans all available networks, and then decides to which it should
connect. network-manager is faster, it reconnects immediately to the
last connected network. But network-manager has other disadvantages: it
uses more resources and does not reconnect at work, where we have a
guest network with a public hotspot and a landing page. wicd reconnects
fine there, but network-manager needs a manual disconnect and connect.
