I'm certain that I didn't *used* to have to put `noarp` in my /etc/dhcpcd.conf to avoid wifi taking 5 seconds to "wake up" after opening my laptop.

Maybe that means it's finally time to get off my old #netctl + #wpa_supplicant + #dhcpcd setup and look at this new `iwd` thing.

Struggled for half a day with #netctl to configure the wireless network. Then started with #network manager and successfully connected to the public network in a couple of minutes

you have to go into cmd.exe and run netsh wlan delete profile name="ProfileName"

what the fuck windows, that's even more complicated than on #Linux

both #netctl and #NetworkManager simply store those settings in text files THAT YOU CAN SEARCH FOR AND DELETE and nm-applet has a gui for it

After long time of struggling to get wifi-supplicant(netctl) to work with WPA enterprise wifi network, switched to network manager. Another side issue existed - recent version of wvdial is broken and hence I couldn't use a 3G USB modem. Network manager solved both. #netctl #networkmanager
