How to Forget a Wireless Network in Jolicloud

I’m a big fan of Jolicloud. I won’t get into the details, but if you have a slow/old computer or a netbook, you should look to install in ASAP. For example, Windows XP is such a dog on my Dell Mini 10v, but Jolicloud cruises. And start-up (which kills me on Windows) is easy-living on Jolicloud. But to get to the meat of the post:

I couldn’t figure out how to have Jolicloud “forget” a wireless network. E.g., it kept on automatically connecting to an old wireless network (“Wireless B”) when I wanted it instead to automatically connect to my new wireless network (“Wireless A”).

Here’s how you do it:

  1. Right click on the wireless network icon (the four staggered signal bars) near the top right-hand corner.
  2. Select “Edit Connections.”
  3. Click on the “Wireless” tab.
  4. Select the wireless connection you want to delete/modify/demote.
  5. Either delete it, or edit it. If you edit it, you can uncheck “Connect Automatically.”
  6. Enjoy!
