Default Wi-Fi

Is there a setting on my phone I need to make so the phone will scan and automatically connect to Wi-Fi that I haven't already setup? Or do I need to do the scan manually when I'm at a new hotspot or similar area?

In the Wi-Fi connections I have "Prompt for manual connection or login" checked, and "Enable single profile scanning" unchecked. I only have a few saved Wi-Fi profiles at this point.

I'm pretty sure everything that uses wifi, ie blackberries, iphones, PCs, whatever...has to be setup to each network, unless it uses a common SSID that's already setup like linksys, netgear, belkin....

Its not like the device has a mind of its own and can pick and choose which networks to connect to
