To add to it, you may have to restart networking service = using herd command like herd stop networking and herd start networking. Wep= connection may need to be marked as wpa in nmtui

I'm not sure how to access Network Manager from within Xfce.=C2=A0 With= in
GNOME, you can access it via the usual "All Settings" applet.=C2= =A0 In Xfce,
at the very least you could fire up a terminal and use "nmcli" or=
"nmtui", which should be installed in your system profile by defa= ult
when you have the NetworkManager service installed.

Hope that helps - good luck!
