X51v A12 Wi-Fi "Instant" Connect w/ Dell WLAN Utility Setting

I am constantly amazed at how much faster my X51v with the A12 ROM connects with Wi-Fi networks.

However, I have noticed that once I have 3 or more Wireless Networks configured, connect times increase dramatically.

I have started deleting all open networks once I'm away from those access points.

Doing so restores the "instant" connect that is SUCH an improvement over A06.

I agree with all the comments above but I sometimes find that when I power on my device the WLAN is alread enabled, according to the top tool bar, though accoring to WLAN settings it is disabled. I don't know if any of that made sense but this is a pain because I then have to go into the WLAN settings set to "enable" and then "disable" for this to disapear. Has anyone else had this problem?

I have the same problem, rack04. Also, sometimes I can't connect to an AP and I have to do a soft reset to get it working again.
