Public bug reported: I needed to set network manager to avoid managing a given wireless interface, so that I can set it up with static IP + dhcpd + hostapd. When I disable Wireless the phy rfkill associated to it gets "softblocked" on boot, so I need to manually "rfkill unblock phy" and ifup, restart all services for the setup to work.
When wifi is set to "Enable Wifi" it all works correctly. My guess is that network-manager rfkill even unmanaged devices when wifi is disabled, but I have not checked the source code. ** Affects: network-manager (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to network-manager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1559601 Title: network manager rfkills unmanaged wireless devices when "Enabled Wifi" is set to disabled Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I needed to set network manager to avoid managing a given wireless interface, so that I can set it up with static IP + dhcpd + hostapd.
