2 options: You don't need to use the connman interactive shell, all connections are stored under: /var/lib/connman/ debian@bbgw-pwr15-ser23:~$ sudo cat /var/lib/connman/wifi_209148c9516a_584131302d576946692d5831_managed_psk/settings [wifi_209148c9516a_584131302d576946692d5831_managed_psk] Name=XA10-WiFi-X1 SSID=584131302d576946692d5831 Frequency=2412 Favorite=true AutoConnect=true Modified=2020-04-16T19:16:41.218495Z Passphrase=****** IPv4.method=dhcp IPv4.DHCP.LastAddress=192.168.1.155 IPv6.method=auto IPv6.privacy=disabled 2nd, you don't "have" to use connman, we just use it by default it as it works pretty decent for out of box.. sudo apt remove connman --purge Then go back to /etc/network/interfaces...
