Windows 10: Wifi keeps auto connecting to network when set to manual

I have a Windows 11 laptop, latest update 10.0.22621 N/A Build 22621, with a Realtek RTL8852BE WiFi 6 802.11ax PCIe Adapter.Starting two days ago, it has now started to auto attempt to connect to the strongest wifi network, even through the WIFI settings for any wifi network is set to manually connect even setting it to auto and back to manual has no effect.Note: that when connected to a wifi with a captive portal, the WIFI will connect, disconnect and reconnect every couple of seconds and generating a new web page to come upThanks

:)

 

Is it possible to set up a new manual wifi connection from the command line?

I'm trying to work out a solution to set up ad-hock wifi connections in Windows 8.1 based on the suggestions in a post on Micsrosoft's answers site. Is there any way to do the first few steps:

• go to "Network and Sharing Center"
  
• click "Set up a new connection or network"
  
• double click "Manually connect to a wireless network"
  
• enter the SSID of the ad-hoc network (as shown by "netsh wlan show networks") into the "Network name" field
  
• configure security settings accordingly
  
• uncheck "Start this connection automatically" (important)
  

...without using the windows dialogs?

Hi, just to check, presumably you're referring to 1 or other of these settings:
