wpa_suplplicant selects a far weak hot spot instead or a near strong one.
I have many wifi spots : iwlist simplified :
Cell 01 - Address: C4:EA:1D:3D:1B:D3
Quality=25/70 Signal level=-85 dBm
ESSID:"TNCAP3D1BD3"
Cell 02 - Address: 18:A6:F7:6C:28:72
Quality=61/70 Signal level=-49 dBm
ESSID:"TP-LINK_2872"
Cell 03 - Address: F4:39:09:4F:19:6C
Quality=60/70 Signal level=-50 dBm
ESSID:"DIRECT-6B-HP OfficeJet Pro 6970"
Cell 04 - Address: 50:D4:F7:FF:9D:22
Quality=59/70 Signal level=-51 dBm
ESSID:"TP-Link_9D22"
Cell 05 - Address: CA:0F:B4:FC:B9:70
Quality=25/70 Signal level=-85 dBm
ESSID:"couderc"
Cell 07 - Address: 50:D4:F7:FF:9D:21
Quality=43/70 Signal level=-67 dBm
ESSID:"TP-Link_9D22_5G"
The point is that "couderc" is selected instead of "TPLINK_2872" (the
1rst in /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant-wlp1s0.conf)
.
With -d option I see in journactl (I do not know if it is relevant) :
nl80211: Received scan results (8 BSSes)
wlp1s0: BSS: Start scan result update 1
