I though you can tell ConnMan not to set the background value. At least
there is a config knob in connman.conf (BackgroundScanning) for it.
The default is true, not sure what it means if it is set to false.

Looking at the NM sources, I found only one reference to bgscan:
src/supplicant-manager/nm-supplicant-config.c
nm_supplicant_config_add_setting_wireless_security()
{
...
if (!strcmp (key_mgmt, "wpa-eap")) {
/* If using WPA Enterprise, enable optimized background
scanning
* to ensure roaming within an ESS works well.
*/
if (!nm_supplicant_config_add_option (self, "bgscan",
"simple:30:-65:300", -1, FALSE, error))
return FALSE;
...
}
So usually, NM does not configure the bgscan option. I assume you are
not doing WPA EAP?
cheers,
daniel
