A few questions...

1. What kind of AP ( 2.4G?  5G? )?  What type of security?  Is the SSID
visible?

2. The following two commands will show the APs known to NM and
wpa_supplicant:

 - nmcli d wifi list

 - wpa_cli scan_results

Please check to see if the AP is available in either during this period.

You also can enable debug scan logging in NM via:

Just before the test:

$ sudo nmcli general logging level debug domains wifi,wifi_scan

<do test>

Either grab syslog right now, or turn down the logging:

$ sudo nmcli general logging level info domains DEFAULT

and then grab the syslog at your convenience.

Title:
  WiFi network is not listed by NM but listed by the kernel driver

Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  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:
