Default internet connection at coffee shops
trying to connect to firefox at daylight donuts/barnes&noble/etc.

on windows tray there's an icon w/ a drop-down box for choosing which internet connection you can connect to ---- I can't find a similar icon on pc-bsd

I've gone thru all the places I can think of to turn that feature on and with no luck; i've searched the database and previous threads, 'n see nothing similar

it should be fairly simple but for the life of me i can't get it; I LOVE BSD, but have to use MS Ws for the internet; d'rather not

please help and thanx in advance for your time

You'll need to enable the network tray icon. Go into the PC-BSD Control Panel, Network Configuration, then select your wireless interface and click 'Display system tray icon.'
