Hmm, interesting. They should request icd2 once a second for the updated
status, which would make icd2 query your network module. Maybe there's a
bug/feature when the network has a different type from WLAN_*...

Also interesting. Those should not have anything to do with retrying a
connection. Could you file a hopefully detailed bug report to Bugzilla?

There's also the option of using the open source wl1251(sp?) WLAN
driver, but that one still needs love and nutrients in order to replace
the cx* one.
