I've seen other cards (ath5k a/b/g) take 5 to 8 seconds to scan when they scan all the bands. iwlwifi sometimes takes 5 seconds to scan as well. That should all be valid. Can you get some wpa_supplicant runs with "-dddt" that show the problem you're having? NM uses the supplicant for all scanning activity. It shouldn't really "break" NM, so if it does I'd like to fix that. Dan
