Why does the new version of Kubuntu take longer to start the wifi connection?
Why does the new version of Kubuntu take longer to start the wifi connection?
Kubuntu 23.10 connects to wifi, but only after all other startup programs have run.
I'm just curious as to why that is. And what controls this startup behavior.
I've had to change some startup scripts for rclone, to wait until a network connection is present before starting. Other than that it's not a problem.

I think the connection is made by some program after login and not automatically by the system as in other operating systems
If for example i install icewm on kubuntu I don’t have Wi-Fi connection at all

It felt strange to have to do that at first, but it's also reassuring that the machine isn't by default connecting to a wireless network without user input first unless I give it explicit instructions to do so.

Was playing with KDE on live boot today and noticed WiFi took a long while after entering WiFi creds. Didn't bother digging into why, though.
