</div></div>Which driver are you using? Please also note that the bgscan<br>
functionality was not really designed to work with WEXT (i.e., you<br>
better use nl80211 for this) and the goal of bgscan is to find roaming<br>
candidates within the same ESS, so while it may not be by design, not<br>
updating results for other networks would be proper behavior.<br>
