That is possibly an explanation, yes. As soon as you have autoconnect
enabled and you also try additional manual wds start network with
explicit settings, you may get errors that you wouldn't normally
expect. I think you should try to choose between one or the other; and
if you want to enable autoconnect you should modify the default
profile settings (e.g. --wds-modify-profile).

Dan, what do you think?
