<br>
looks like you are right. After switching on Wifi-direct on my Samsung it says "scanning" and iwconfig shows the following boring output:<br>
<br>
wlan0 AR6K 802.11nag Nickname:""<br>
NWID:off/any Mode:Managed Bit Rate=1 Mb/s Tx-Power=0 dBm<br>
Sensitivity=0/3<br>
Retry:on RTS thr=0 B Fragment thr=0 B<br>
Power Management:on<br>
Link Quality:255/94 Signal level:-96 dBm Noise level:-96 dBm<br>
Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:0<br>
Tx excessive retries:0 Invalid misc:0 Missed beacon:0<br>
