Hi We are facing similar issues and want to achieve the same functionality. I wonder if there is something that can be done at the wpa_supplicant level rather than all of us writing our own hacks? I think this kind of functionality will be useful as wpa_supplicant is increasingly deployed in headless devices. Jouni, do you have any comments?
