I'm using NetworkManager on my laptop (via knetworkmanager) to easily switch between ethernet and WiFi networks. It works great, but there is one thing that is a little inconvenient: after moving the laptop, it can take up to 2 minutes before new WiFi networks are shown in the list of available networks. By inspecting the source code, I found out that the scanning interval is 15, 20 or 120 seconds, depending on the "state" of the wireless device.
Is there some trick to force the device into the "active" state to reduce the interval? I know that removing the kernel module works, but I would prefer a less drastic approach. If not, what are the consequences of decreasing the 120 second interval? -- Dick _______________________________________________ NetworkManager-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/networkmanager-list
