    Don’t be afraid of NetworkManager. Just because it is not the default in antiX doesn’t mean you cannot use it or it doesn’t work. On my fluxbox-KDE antiX live system I use networkmanager for consistency (and to avoid problems of having 2 Network Managers “fighting” every time I switch session). I have disabled “password encryption” or whatever name it has, and it runs as well and fast as connman. If you ever want to try it, download/install the necessary packages before uninstalling connman, fix resolv.conf if needed, and use it.

    Thanks indeed.
    I actually installed Networkmanager and was testing for comparison with Connman. If it has enhanced functionality, I would be considering replacement of Connman. My only concern would be it is not as light and greater need for dependencies, but I am not sure it is still the case. Most assessments on the web comparing both are very old…
