Moving this bug report upstream from Fedora.

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=708450

Here's the original notes ...

"
Network manager seems very slow to connect back to my wireless network after I
open the lid on my Macbook Pro, compared to OSX.

On OSX, it gets itself back on the network within seconds, but on Fedora, it
seems to take up to half a minute.

Is there anything that can be done about this? Is it trying wired networks or
something first? Are the wireless drivers really slow to come up on Linux? Just
a few suggestions, but something is off ...
"

It seems a little quicker on Fedora 16, when actually connecting to a wireless network, but it terms of scanning wireless networks and listing them, it's very slow to do so.

I speculated on there as follows when last I commented on that bug ...

"
For what it's worth, it seems Fedora is scanning for all
available wireless networks before connecting to my usual one. Is it just that
OSX is trying straight away for the one it last/usually used/uses and so
appears to be loads quicker?
