I've just finished writing a mini-tutorial (for my IoT students) on how to connect a Pico-W to a WiFi network with the best signal strength (lowest rssi value).

Although I must admit this posting is not directly related to Node-RED, quite a few peope have asked me to share what I've found out about networking on the Pico-W, so please accept this as a useful offering.

Here's a [link](http://www.resources-area.co.uk/node-red-flows/pico-w/connect-to-best-network.pdf) to the online tutorial.  
Inside the tutorial are links to my Micro-Python code and other related resources.
