Sometimes an access point is not what it appears in the neighborhood
display.
Running build 703, Q2D14, on MP laptops.
If access points are present which have a "null" essid, they appear in the
neighborhood view as the first access point listed in
/home/olpc/.sugar/default/nm/networks.cfg.
A laptop (X50, CSN7470144B), was showing the problem and logged. It was
connected to a school WiFi access point, zoom50, but showed two circles in
the neighborhood view (other than the three mesh circles). Both were
labelled zoom50.
Scan logs from X50 are available at:
http://xs-dev.laptop.org/mesh/test0417/twocircle/scan.log.x50
http://xs-dev.laptop.org/mesh/test0417/twocircle/scan.log.x50.1
http://xs-dev.laptop.org/mesh/test0417/twocircle/scan.log.x50.2
The Sugar, system, kernel and networking logs from this laptop are
available at:

In previous occasions, when the school access point has been turned off,
we have also seen this, and the name or names are still zoom50, or linksys
(the first name in some of the laptop's networks.cfg file).
