certain working environment, you
may need to save your settings to a
profile so that you can easily switch
to the settings without repeating the
configurations. For example, you
can set profiles for work, home and
other situations. When you travel form home to work, choose the "office" profile
that contains all your settings for office use. When you travel back home,
choose the “home” profile.

want to connect to a specified AP using a
particular profile.
