wifi network

Dear all,

I have a little but annoying problem with my Mac Pro 6,1 with Big Sur. When it startup automatically it connect to a poor signal wifi network and I have every time manually move to right network.

I have tried several times to put the right network at the top of advanced wifi preferences but in a few days the Mac forgot it.

Any suggestion?

The computer will connect to the Strongest Wifi Signal available either 2.4 gHz or 5 gHz if both are using the SSID and Password.


Possible solution is to Change one ( 2.4gHz ) name to something else and change the Wifi Password. Then on computer choose to use the Desired Wifi and drag to Top
