I'm curious about the use cases. What were your thoughts on how this should
look like?
I imagine for things like firmware update you still have a set time limit in
which this upgrade should happen?
Right now I like Pedro's earlier proposal with the minimum throughput guidance.
I think we can go further and calculate the roaming RSSI threshold based on the
minimum throughput. This would allow iwd to ignore roaming until that minimum
throughput can no longer be delivered.
If we need a bigger hammer, then we may want to consider using an implementation
similar to how Modem.Lockdown was implemented in oFono.
Regards,
-Denis
