Ok, Looking through the code. ap_scan is being set to 2 in nm-supplicant- config.c.
if (is_adhoc || is_ap) priv->ap_scan = 2; else priv->ap_scan = 1; This is the only place where this is done. The code for wpa_supplicant from the the official source at https://w1.fi/cgit/hostap/ does not contain the warning message! This is only present in the ubuntu source package. I have not checked the debian source yet. I might try a build of Network Manager that forces ap_scan to 1 and see if that gets round the iwlwifi problems. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1886169 Title: "nl80211 driver interface is not designed to be used with ap_scan=2" To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/wpasupplicant/+bug/1886169/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
