It doesn't happen with Intel 3495 abg (wlan0) when 802.11n is turned off
but will happen if 802.11n is active for other wifi adapters.  It
happens with RTL2800 bgn (wlan1), BCM43526 ac+gn (wlan2), Intel Centrino
6235 bgn (wlan3) and now with RTL 3072 bgn (wlan4).

Very aggravating, especially since since I don't know what CTRL-EVEN-
SCAN-STARTED is and if I need on every minute instead of once a day.  I
might pick up an Atheros wifi adapter soon but I'll bet my favorite
laptop sticker it'll have the same grief with 802.11n.  And NO I'm not
turning off 802.11n because I like seeing "Bit Rate:115.Mb/s" on my
Conky display instead of "54 Mb/s".

Could a kernel developer or network-manager programmer not give some
advise to these many posts littering the netosphere please?

Don't even get me started ranting about 802.11ac...
