Screenshot: ambiguity for one interface's view of an SSID with multiple BSS=
IDs

My initial connection to SSID 'piano' was with wifimgr-1.17 =E2=80=93 proba=
bly with
wlan0 and without enabling wlan1 in rc.conf =E2=80=93 and I enabled:=20

=E2=98=91 Any BSSID

----

With 1.17.7 and wlan1 enabled, after _disabling_=20
=E2=98=90 Any BSSID=20
there's the green icon of connectivity for wlan1 for same SSID, however it's
not enabled, and (half-expected) there's no hint that an encryption key has
been entered.=20

>From the manual page for wifimgr(8):=20

> =E2=80=A6 When the "Save" button is clicked, the enabled networks are=20
> written back out to the wpa_supplicant.conf(5) file and the network=20
> interface is restarted. =E2=80=A6

In this case, it's unclear what will be the effect of=20
=E2=98=91 Enabled=20
for the upper of the two listings (the BSSID that's currently at channel 1)
because if I understand correctly, the Konsole window in the background sho=
ws
an _already enabled_ connection to channel 1.
