Description

Network connections can be managed by NetworkManager built to use iwd as the Wi-Fi backend instead of wpa_supplicant. It helps systems that prefer iwd handle wireless profiles, authentication, and connection behavior through NetworkManager.

Changing Wi-Fi backend can affect saved networks, enterprise authentication, and roaming behavior. Keep fallback network access when switching.

How to run

NetworkManager.service
