Wifimgr parses the output of "ifconfig -v wlanN list scan" in order to compute the number of bars to display for the signal strength. With the iwm driver, I see s/n values like -49:-96 for my network. But with the iwlwifi driver, the values for the same network are -121:-96 . This large negative value for the signal strength is causing wifimgr to compute the number of bars as 0. Bj=C3=B8rn, is this something else to look at in the iwlwifi driver? -jr
