[Bug 1460573] [NEW] wifi signal strength shows extremely strong when it's going to lose connection
Public bug reported:
$ system-image-cli -i
current build number: 9
device name: arale
channel: ubuntu-touch/rc-proposed/meizu.en
last update: 2015-06-01 10:31:33
version version: 9
version ubuntu: 20150529.1
version device: 20150522-a851049
version custom: 20150529-722-5-31
Steps to reproduce:
1.Connect to a wifi
2.Move the device out of range
3.Check the wifi signal strength before it's going to lose connection
Expected results:
The signal strength should become weaker and weaker till lose connection
Actual results:
The signal strength became extremely strong before it's going to lose connection
Additional information:
Checked the access point before and after the signal strength became strong,
==>before
$ iwconfig | grep "Access Point"
Mode:Managed Frequency:5.18 GHz Access Point: 9C:D3:6D:A3:B2:E7
==>after
$ iwconfig | grep "Access Point"
Mode:Managed Access Point: 00:00:00:00:06:00 Tx-Power=off
The access point did not change immediately when wifi signal strength
is showing extremely strong, need waiting for about 1~2 seconds, then
after a while, wifi is disconnected.
