Hello! I have several questions about wpa-supplicant + dhcpcd services.

First of all I do not want to use networkmanager and I usually get Internet working manually with this:

# cat startnet

#!/bin/sh

#connect to wi-fi through wpa_supplicant

herd stop wpa-supplicant

rfkill unblock wifi

wpa_supplicant -B -i wlp2s0 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf

sleep 2

dhclient -v wlp2s0

#./startnet

I configured services wpa-supplicant and dhcpcd in my config.scm (in attach). Guix reconfigures my system normally, start services wpa-supplicant, networking, dhcpv4-daemon. But these services do not give me Internet. `ping gnu.org` says unknow host.

The wpa_supplicant.conf is the same as I use. But dhcpcd.conf is that from one forum.

I really do not know what to write there. ip of my router is 192.168.1.1 but the other lines are from forum.

Please, let me see how configure dhcpcd if usually I used `dhclient -v wlp2s0`.

What to type there?

Also is it ok my wpa-supplicant-service-type config?

And why I have NetworkManager in my /var/log/messages, is networkmanager living in my system? How to push it out?

Hi! There actually were wpa-supplicant config twice. The necessary one is in the (modify-services) section. I rest only that one. And it works. But the network is not working, cause dhcpd is not configured. I really want to get around

"dhcpcd@.service causes slow startup" https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Dhcpcd

Would you give some advises how to prevent slow booting? How to set timeout on wpa-supplicant service and dhcpcd that they'll start after slim shows me auth form?

My actual manual network start is this:

# cat startnet

#!/bin/sh

#connect to wi-fi through wpa_supplicant

herd stop wpa-supplicant

rfkill unblock wifi

wpa_supplicant -B -i wlp2s0 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf

sleep 2

dhclient -v wlp2s0

May be I can use dhclient service or something like that instead of dhcpcd?

I attached my current workable config, but dhcpcd is commented there. Also I do not know how to write dhcpd.conf for my case?

Hello! I am so novice in Guile.

I have trouble trying to add wpa-supplicant configuration to my config. I get this error:

# guix system reconfigure /etc/config.scm

guix system: error: service 'wpa-supplicant' provided more than once

Please, let me know where to place my wpa-config lines?
