Comment(by carrano):

 Only to add that disabling the beacons (iwpriv eth0 bcn_control 0) also
 gets reversed to its default (1 100) value if NM is running (and not if NM
 is not running).

 This is very easy to reproduce and you can even observe without sniffing.
 Just check the output of "iwpriv eth0 bcn_control". It will get back to
 the default in less than one minute.
