I am trying to enable wlan0 through systemctl on ArchLinux. When I do that I get the message that the device is already up. So I dosudo ip link set wlan0 downI can than successfully run sudo systemctl start netctl@wlan0\\x2dwifi.serviceHow can I set the default state wlan0 on down so that systemctl can take over management of wlan0?
Conflict in wlan0 management on ArchLinux
arch linux;wifi
Resolved the issue. I disabled manual wifi and found out that the profile that is created by wifi-menu -o contains a dash. As a result of the dash netctl is unable to load the profile. Renaming the profile located in /etc/netctl/ to something without the dash resolved the issue.
