I would think that the driver doesn't like background scanning. This has been reported in launchpad bug 291760 where the initial report mentions that "he network manager roames to a "none" bssid and back, this happens in more or less two minute" which coincidentially matches the max scan timeout NM uses (120 seconds). - Alexander _______________________________________________ NetworkManager-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/networkmanager-list
