--- Comment #16 from J.R. Oldroyd <fbsd@opal.com> ---
Okay, I think it is the use of NOAUTO in the ifconfig_wlanN lines that was
confusing wifimgr.  It was looking for an associated network and, when none=
 was
found, it was setting the GUI status to down, even though the interfaces we=
re
actually up.

I have now added code to not look for associated networks, but to simply lo=
ok
at the interfaces' statuses when determining the GUI up/down status.

New version is 1.17.11.


By the way, I didn't answer your point about the delay before.  The delay is
due to waiting for the interface up command to complete.  You can run
"/etc/rc.d/netif start wlanN" and you will see the same delay.

Once that command completes wifimgr does loop for up to 10s more waiting fo=
r an
associated network.  However, in practice, this isn't needed as the interfa=
ce
will have associated before the "netif start" command returned.
