Ted,

                This does not seem to be a good idea, because it makes things more difficult for most people so that it is easier for a few.  I rather like the idea that all of my devices are able to connect to the IETF WiFi by default.

If people want to avoid automatically connecting to SSID "ietf," it is not hard for them to cause their device(s) to "forget" that SSID.

And, if there is a particular reason why connecting to the default WiFi would be a problem at one IETF meeting, then we could change the SSID for that meeting only.

The legacy network will have a different SSID. All laptops remember which SSIDs you have connected to successfully in the past. Thus, it is likely that if you encounter problems and have to switch to the example-ssid-legacy SSID, and you close your laptop to move to a new room and open it again, you'll be put back onto the ietf SSID.

This is a good point.   Arguably, we should use a different SSID every IETF.   E.g., ietf-100 instead of ietf.   We're already proposing to do that for ietf-legacy so that people don't automatically associate with that ssid.

So if ietf goes away in favor of ietf-100, and ietf-hotel becomes ietf-100-hotel (or something like that), then would that address your objection?
