Description of problem:

Ok, I know it's not the best thing on the world to use WiFi repeaters, but NM seems to be far from perfect as well.

From my observation it looks when there is same SSID available on the same channel, it's not checking at all quality of signal and NM tries to use whatever goes first - se even when there is near repeater with full signal it pick the AP with much weaker signal quality.

I can select BSSID with the repeaters MAC address, however then laptop still tries to connect to the 'other' MAC.

Then I'm seeing occasional lose of connection and dialog query for WPA2 password - which the NM already knows (looks like it switching between MACs and not realizing it should use automatically same password?)

APs are both TP link devices.

I do not see similar behaviour on Android phones which seems to select
better MAC (though it may likely see the master AP as pretty weak signal hardly usable - while my laptop does far better job with larger built-in antena)

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
NetworkManager-0.9.10.0-1.git20140704.fc21.x86_64

How reproducible:
I'll probably try to setup similar setup as is in my current apartment at home, bu basically network with 2 routers where one is AP, and other plain repeater should be about enough.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.

Actual results:


Expected results:
System should completely hide any use of repeater - so the switch of MACs for the same SSID should be completely user invisible - without any DHCP reload...
