Public bug reported: In Unity7 network-manager indicator is a bit dumb, that is it refreshes after hard-coded intervals. This works in some cases but for cases where you just created a hotspot and want to connect to it, you have to turn off wifi and turn it back on again, problematic, eh ?
Lets fix that with unity8, whenever we open the indicator please refresh the list of wifi networks for a few seconds(5?) and also for the duration of when the indicator is kept open we should refresh wifi network more frequently then we generally do. ** Affects: unity8 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to unity8 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1666462 Title: Should force scan wifi devices when indicator is opened Status in unity8 package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: In Unity7 network-manager indicator is a bit dumb, that is it refreshes after hard-coded intervals.
