To avoid selecting which access point to use every time

the device attempts to connect to a network, you can

create a group that contains various access points, and

define the order in which the access points are used to

connect to a network.
For example, you can add wireless LAN (WLAN) and

packet data access points to an internet access point

group and use the group for browsing the web. If you

give the WLAN access point the higher priority, the

device connects to the internet through a WLAN if

available and through a packet data connection if not.
