I wish to set a Wi-Fi access point as default to connect to. I was told to go to Network Preferences and click on Advanced… button to set the default. I am unable to find it. What am I missing?

I have found it myself. It's already built in in OS X. In System Preferences, goto Network and at the top of the window, you can see a combobox which says: Location. You have to click it and select Edit Locations.
At this picture I have already created my Home Network.
Create and configure the Home network. And click Apply afterwards. Close the window.
From now on you can choose which configuration (or Location) you want to use by opening the Apple-menu () in the Menu Bar. And choose from the Location submenu.
Try this...
- Put your iPhone in AirPlane Mode
- Go to Settings > General > Reset
- Reset Network Settings
- Reboot your Router
- Take you iPhone out of AirPlane mode..
You will be prompted to join your network again, and it should work this time...

Under Preferred Networks, drag and drop the listed access points in the order of priority you want your Mac to connect to them. Drag the most preferred one to top. Your Mac will connect to it when it is available instead of connecting to other available Wi-Fi networks further down the list.
