Ubuntu 12.10: disable network connection at prelogin (lightdm)

Asked by maurizio de santis

Booting the PC today the Ubuntu screen was blocked at startup time, after a green [OK] and a white blinking underscore.

In recovery mode I figured out the problem: NetworkManager hung trying to connect to a wireless network that wasn't available anymore, and so I couldn't reach the prelogin level.

Anyway: I don't like that the pc connects to a network before the user logging in. How is it possible to disable it?
