Hi!
I can’t seem to get connman to bring up my USB WiFi connection automatically on boot. Seems to happen on both 4.4 and 4.9 kernels. Suggestions welcome.
I’d like to move away from having ethernet on my older boards. I’m using WiPi dongles that work perfectly fine if I manually connect… but… shrug. I’ve spent time looking through the archives here but haven’t turned up anything that helps. I admit that doesn’t mean it’s not out there, just I’ve reached the point of asking for assistance while I continue to try and work it out.
Cheers
P.
