58 // Scanning WiFi frequencies for access points takes a long time (on the order
59 // of 100ms per frequency and the kernel doesn't return the result until the
60 // answers are ready for all the frequencies in the batch).  Given this,
61 // scanning all frequencies in one batch takes a very long time.
62 //
63 // A ScanSession is used to distribute a scan across multiple requests (hoping
64 // that a successful connection will result from an early request thereby
65 // obviating the need for the remainder of the scan).  A ScanSession can be

67 // but it really should be implemented as asynchronous code):
68 //
69 // ScanSession::FractionList scan_fractions;

75 //                          interface_index(), scan_fractions,
