Disable/Ignore access point

[Bryan Duff <duff0097 gmail com>]

My situation is that I have a number of accessible access points for me.

I'll connect to the AP I want, but at some interval NetworkManager re-scans available AP's and picks an unencrypted AP (that I don't want).  So I have to then, via nm-applet, reselect the AP I want to use.

This is so irritating that I currently "killall -STOP NetworkManager" after a successful connection to my AP.  Then the world is good, but that's not a super awesome solution.  Could I disable/ignore that AP somehow?  Via nm-applet's interface or NetworkManager itself?

I'm running NetworkManager 7.1, and nm-applet 7.1.  Perhaps there is some documentation for this?
