Adding MULTIPLE WiFi SSID/PSK

There are times that WiFi does not work. I have therefore created a wpa_supplicant file and added to the boot directory of the SD card.

Since I operate often from an alternate location, how may I add MULTIPLE SSID/PSK to the EXISTING wpa_supplicant file[/b]?

Found the answer;

ctrl_interface=DIR=/var/run/wpa_supplicant GROUP=netdev
update_config=1
ap_scan=1
fast_reauth=1
country=AU

network={
ssid="FirstSSID"
psk="password"
key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
id_str="0"
priority=100
}

network={
ssid="SecondSSID"
psk="password"
key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
id_str="1"
priority=99
}

network={
ssid="ThirdSSID"
psk="password"
key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
id_str="2"
priority=98
}

I like this idea. Do these entries need to be added to the wpa_supplicant file??

You can add them through the expert menu under wifi. (configuration->expert->wifi)
