Do make sure you figure out how to do a secure connect, unless you want to share 
with everyone there. I despise NM, but the CLI seems to change just a little 
with upgrades, public WiFi frequently has its own ideas of connect protocols, 
and life is short. Draw what conclusions you will from that, but be aware that 
CLI is a lot easier for wires than WiFi.
