In the Network Manager applet, if you go into the settings for a
wireless
network, there's a check box at the bottom that says "usable by all
users"
or something like that. If that's checked, I think I still have to log
in once
to establish the wireless connection but the connection stays active
after
I log out. (And if the wireless network has "connect automatically"
checked,
I don't need to manually connect after I log in.) I think this is part
of
the solution you're looking for.
If you want the laptop to connect without logging in at all, there's
probably
a way but I don't know offhand. (I occasionally start networks without
logging
into the gui, using nmcli, but that still requires me to use the
console.)
I'm pretty sure that NetworkManager connects to my wireless network
automatically even before login. I guess it could depend on what starts
it (i.e., on login or by an init system). I start it with systemd on
system startup.
