Ok, I admit you were right.
Now I see 2 of 3 connections shown by "iwlist scan".
So the system does work.
There are times I get things right. :-)
But I still believe it is a crazy and counter-intuitive setup.
Also, I miss my little map with available access points
shown in different directions.
I never understood what the different directions indicated,
but it was very pretty and made me feel I was in command.
I've never encountered that map. Didn't want to mention that so as not to confuse
myself. :-)
To me, NM is like a military policeman -
"We know what is best for you, and you better like it".
Isn't that pretty much the case for all software written by others?
