Maybe someone here can enlighten me. I usually don't bring my phone into stores. But the other day I went to Home Depot and I had my phone on me. Despite my settings of "Do not connect to any wifi network", I look and I am shocked to find that my phone is connected to some random wifi network. Odd.

I get home and all the sudden my phone won't connect to my wifi and when I try to connect it to my home wifi, it says, "incorrect password" and its connection was intermittent. It would come back for a second if I turned the wifi on and off again.

Eventually I deleted every known wifi network from my phone and its been solid since. But what the heck happened at home depot?
