Bug Report

Latest version of
I am running wifi-survey in Docker on Ubuntu 20.04.
iperf is running in Docker on Debian 18

In wifi-Survey I consistently get this error when it gets to the final Download (UPD) step. All steps up and to this point are fine.
I get a prompt asking if I want to retry or not. If I hit yes to retry it just keeps popping the same message. If I hit no sometimes it seems to finish (the point I selected on the floorplan goes green and says 100%, other times wifi-survey freezes and I can either wait (which doesn't work) or force quit).

When I return to the cli I see the following errors:
warning: UDP block size 65507 exceeds TCP MSS 1448, may result in fragmentation/drops
iperf error control socket has closed unexpectedly; retrying
iperf error unable to send control message: ; retrying
On the iperf server I see iperf3: error - select failed: Bad file descriptor

To create the container I as using:

docker run
--net="host"
--privileged
--name survey
-it
--rm
-v $(pwd):/pwd
-w /pwd
-e DISPLAY=$DISPLAY
-v "$HOME/.Xauthority:/root/.Xauthority:ro"
-v /run/user/1000/at-spi/bus_0:/run/user/1000/at-spi/bus_0
