Duplicate Wi-Fi networks in list after suspending

[devkornev]

The same Wi-Fi networks appear several times. The more time has passed, the more duplicates in the list. There are no problems in the settings window.

This should have been fixed in #99. Does this still happen for you in the stable Juno release?

[devkornev]

Yes, It's still there in stable Juno release.

I noticed a duplicate network today as well in the menu, but not the Settings plug. So yeah, something's up here.

Both this and #111 could be pretty big security concerns. Right now it shows me the same network three times, some show that they are encrypted and some not (the network actually isn't encrypted).

If someone thinks they are connected to a certain network or a network with encryption they could end up revealing information they didn't mean to.

How long do you think it will take to fix this?

I'm experiencing this issue constantly. No basis for this but I think it is possibly related to having multiple routers for one network? The network that is showing up multiple times is a college public network.

@aaronraimist The issue has been triaged. It doesn't appear to be extremely reproducible for all users, as I frequently don't see it but sometimes do. It will get fixed as soon as someone can track down how to reliably reproduce, debug, and fix it.

@cassidyjames all I can say is that I am reliably reproducing it. Are there any logs I can provide to you?

I have Juno installed on a laptop and this occurs 90% of the time when coming back from a suspended state.

This also seems consistently related to suspending to me.
