Disabling Automatic Wireless Connection in Linux Mint

This action is particularly useful when you are formatting a machine for someone else as the installation is best done with wifi connected, you don't want to hand back the machine with your wifi network set to auto connect.

To disable an automatic wireless connection in Linux Mint

From the network menu page
click on the arrow (->) next to the connected wifi name
click on forget network
accept forget network

Done, the next time you or anyone tries to connect to the same network you will be prompted for a password.
