Multiple WiFi Networks #22

Closed nikolailarsen01 closed 4 years ago

I have encountered that it shows multiple versions of the same Wifi network, often varying in signal strength. This both happens on KDE Plasma 5 and MATE. I am running GhostBSD 19.10.

That could mean you have multiple wifi with the same name, I had noticed that my ISP wifi had 2 wifi one at 2.5g and the other one at 5G, so I have renamed them. To prove it is a bug I would need ifconfig wlan0 scan output.

I think they are different access points. But they should just show as one, and connect to the closest. Screenshot_20200130_140042

Actually they are different access points with the same name. If you look at the BSSID they are different. It is not an issue.
