Wi-Fi: auto-start connection #636
Conversation
Adding the NetworkManager-wifi package as an extension does not automatically start the Wi-Fi connection. NetworkManager.service should be restarted to establish the connection.

Hmm, feels like for a oneshot service, there isn't much difference between ExecStart= and ExecStartPost=? Fine as is too though!

That said, did you try systemctl reload NetworkManager.service instead? If that works, that should be preferred I think.

I tried systemctl reload NetworkManager.service but it didn't work.

considering coreos/fedora-coreos-tracker#1691 (comment) which I had forgot about, I guess we should actually change the docs here to not use I think @jlebon is working on a doc update for this in the os extensions section and then we can update the docs on this page to do the same. at that point we won't need to restart NetworkManager because the system will have rebooted |

#637 (comment) should mean that we are rebooting at least for now.. @hrismarin we can leave this PR open for when coreos/fedora-coreos-tracker#1691 is fixed (@jlebon opened coreos/rpm-ostree#4939 for that) if you like. |
