[OSX-Users] iOS preferred network order

[Nick Gibbins]

ios-users seems to be dead, so I'm posting this here.

Does iOS 5 have any way for me to specify in which order it should try
to connect to wifi networks? Now that the uni is moving to eduroam for
wifi, I'm starting to get problems at home.

The situation is this: we have a house network (GARKNET) to which our 
servers and the TV are connected, and we also run a SOWN node (so eduroam 
is also visible). To control our TV, we use a Mac Mini running EyeTV, and 
use our iDevices running Rowmote as remote controls.

Unfortunately, there's about a 50:50 chance that our phones will connect
to eduroam rather than GARKNET, and I'm getting a bit fed up with having
to check which network my phone is connected to before I try to change 
channels.

On OS X it's possible to specify the order in which a computer tries to
connect to networks - is this also possible in iOS, and if so, how?

(and yes, I'm aware that this problem was only made possible by my love
of superfluous technology)
