When moving away from WLAN something not visible in load-applet is using a lot processor cycles resulting in battery drain and making network connection selection unusable.
I don't see that - for me it's the wireless chip itself that is
draining the battery (because power management is off) -
the processor is not working unusually hard ... (verified
by top, which, by the way, shows that browserd is not
my culprit).
