[Bug 1490520] [NEW] WiFi network is not listed by NM but listed by the kernel driver

 

Public bug reported:

I wanted to connect my local WiFi network today but didn't found it in
the UI. I then manually triggered a

$ sudo iwlist wlan0 scan

on the command line which directly found my WiFi network whereas
NetworkManager still didn't listed it.

After power cycling WiFi the network was listed again on the UI.

This is on Ubuntu Touch and mako:
