Access point problem

I just performed a hard reset on my N95 and reinstalled a back up file which (deliberately) didn't have settings saved.
I have a wifi connection at home and at work.
I managed to add the office wifi as a new access point when at work today. Subsequently, when opening applications which look for an internet connection (e.g. web browser, podcasting app etc.) the office wireless connection was visible in the list of connection points and connected OK.
I then added my home network as a new connection point. This seemed to add OK but it doesn't show up in the list of connection options when going online in an application. If I click 'search for WLAN' I can find it and connect manually by entering my WEP key each time but that shouldn't be necessary. It is showing under tools > settings > connection > access points though so this doesn't make sense.
I had two wireless connection points working fine previously.
Is there a limit to how many connection points you can have?
Any suggestions?

When you go to tools / settings / connection / access points .. does your home AP show?
if not add it .. options / New Access Point ..

So try that and see how you get on ..

Yes it's showing but like I said not displaying in the list when I look for a WLAN connection.
