Since LMDE upgrade, wireless always disabled on boot

Post by noah++ »

Hi,

My problem is minor but annoying. Every time I boot into MATE, the "Enable Wireless" option is unchecked in the NetworkManager applet. Once I toggle it, wireless works fine for the rest of my session. But I have to do it on every boot.

Any idea how to fix this? Here's the entirety of my NetworkManager.conf:

Code: Select all

[main]
plugins=ifupdown,keyfile

[ifupdown]
managed=false

Save the following text as /etc/profile.d/enable_wifi.sh

Code: Select all

nmcli nm wifi on
Now your wifi should be enabled on login.
