Description Pascal d'Hermilly 2017-01-04 16:40:14 UTC
when I click the network widget it should a wlan scan if possible. Usually I just activated the mobile wifi on my phone and it's not seen before a scan happens. It would be nice if "the widget would take a look when I look at the widget"

It should appear after some time, but we are going to implement auto-scanning anyway as NM since version 1.6.0 won't do this automatically.

Auto-scan for wireless networks every 15 seconds

NetworkManager plans to reduce periodic scanning in future and
clients are now supposed to scan manually instead. Now the scan
button is removed as it doesn't make sense anymore, because we
now request scan every 15 seconds when either the applet or kcm
is opened. This is implemented the same way in Gnome.
