Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: knetworkmanager

Qt: 3.3.7
KDE: 3.5.6
KNetworkManager: 0.1
feisty 2.6.20-15-generic
up2date

the maintainers of my university-lan provide a bunch of accesspoints throughout the campus. each and every accesspoint has the same essid.
when you scan for APs in your range using <iwlist eht1 scanning>, it will list each and every AP in range, providing you with its unique mac-adress and linkquality.
while knm only lists 1 AP in range, wifi-radar and kwifimanager both list all of them.
first i thought knm would choose the AP with best linkquality, but that is not true. 
depending on my position the given qualitiy varies very much, so i would definetly like to choose my AP- why isn't knm listing those as well?

regards, patrick
