Hi, Now that all of the major UI clients (GNOME Shell, KDE, nm-applet) have been updated to request scans when appropriate, stop NM from doing periodic scans while connected, preferring instead to let the supplicant decide when to scan based on signal strength thresholds. This branch preserves the behavior of not scanning at all when the connection is locked to a single BSSID (via not sending "bgscan" to the supplicant config, and preventing all periodic scans when connected). Explicitly requested scans are of course not prevented when connected. Yeah, nm-applet should probably update itself asynchronously, like the OS X Airport menu, but at least it requests scans since 1.8 so it'll be updated the next time the menu is shown. nm-applet has requested scans since 1.8, GNOME Shell's applet has requested scans since 3.23, and KDE's plasma-nm has requested scans since 5.8.95. All these UIs were updated mid-April 2017. Dan
