I don't know.

What exactly this means?
Sep 20 19:04:36 vinicius kernel: [ 5848.153079] 
wlan0: No active IBSS STAs - trying to scan for 
other IBSS networks with same SSID (merge)
Sep 20 19:04:39 vinicius kernel: [ 5850.890322] 
wlan0: Selected IBSS BSSID 66:fb:fa:09:25:ca based 
on configured SSID
