    All interfaces of connman (in antiX full cmst, in antiX base, connman-ui) are comunicating with the real connman service conmanctl

    If you launch in terminal
    connmanctl
    You will see that the terminal input has changed. Inside that change, see what
    technologies
    outputs. It should tell you all detected interfaces and if they are on/off.
    For wlanX interfaces, it usually identifies them as “wifi”. We need to know how it identifies your eth1 interface.

    Let us imagine that it identifies it as “wifi”

    /net/connman/technology/wifi
      Name = Wifi
      Type = wifi
      Powered = False

    We need to enable it
    enable wifi
    and check technologies again

    /net/connman/technology/wifi
      Name = Wifi
      Type = wifi
      Powered = True
      Connected = False

    To make sure it can scan, you run
    scan wifi
    If it spits out an error, lets try restarting connman. Exit connmanctl with
    quit
    and restart connman service
    sudo service restart connman

    Then again enter connmanctl and scan again

    connmanctl
    > scan wifi

    If everything goes well, you will see that scan was a success, and see your wireless connections with
    services

    If it is there, exit connmanctl with quit and try to use the connman gui to connect to your wireless AP.

    If there is no wifi option, paste the connmanctl technologies output so we may see.
