Dear
I am experimenting with dynamic behaviour of NM with multiple networks and how handover occurs between WiFi/mobile network. I am moving away from the WiFi access point as far that the NM is unable to connect to the WiFi. NM is restarted and gets a connection to the mobile connection (lowest autoconnect priority). Afterwards, I am moving very close to the WiFi AP but NM doesn't connect to it. If I execute "nmcli dev wifi list" after moving a little bit from the APs away, I get: * SSID MODE CHAN RATE SIGNAL BARS SECURITY demo7 Infra 7 54 Mbit/s 22 ▂___ -- STATION Infra 1 54 Mbit/s 14 ▂___ WPA2 802.1X CONTROL Infra 11 54 Mbit/s 17 ▂___ -- forge_wlan_inf4 Infra 64 54 Mbit/s 25 ▂___ -- STATION Infra 6 54 Mbit/s 19 ▂___ WPA2 802.1X forge_wlan_inf5 Infra 100 54 Mbit/s 27 ▂___ -- forge_wlan_inf3 Infra 56 54 Mbit/s 27 ▂___ -- forge_wlan_adhoc3 Ad-Hoc 56 54 Mbit/s 27 ▂___ -- forge_wlan_adhoc5 Ad-Hoc 100 54 Mbit/s 24 ▂___ -- forge_wlan_adhoc5 Ad-Hoc 100 54 Mbit/s 25 ▂___ -- forge_wlan_adhoc5 Ad-Hoc 100 54 Mbit/s 24 ▂___ -- This shows me that both station APs (SSID=STATION) have signal of 14% and 19%. If I am executing "Service network-manager restart" and again ask the WiFi signal level with "nmcli dev wifi list", I get: * SSID MODE CHAN RATE SIGNAL BARS SECURITY forge_wlan_inf4 Infra 64 54 Mbit/s 29 ▂___ -- forge_wlan_inf5 Infra 100 54 Mbit/s 29 ▂___ -- demo7 Infra 7 54 Mbit/s 34 ▂▄__ -- forge_wlan_adhoc5 Ad-Hoc 100 54 Mbit/s 25 ▂___ -- forge_wlan_adhoc3 Ad-Hoc 56 54 Mbit/s 22 ▂___ -- CONTROL Infra 11 54 Mbit/s 27 ▂___ -- forge_wlan_inf3 Infra 56 54 Mbit/s 20 ▂___ -- STATION Infra 1 54 Mbit/s 22 ▂___ WPA2 802.1X * STATION Infra 6 54 Mbit/s 35 ▂▄__ WPA2 802.1X My robot is not moved but signal level after NM restart is noticeably higher than before. It seems that the signal level sticks to the percentages which have been measured at the beginning of my experiment. Can someone help me with this issue? Best regards Pieter Cardoen |
