Hi, thanks for the log. You see there "pending_action" mentioned. This internally delays startup complete. Indeed, there is a bug there. I opened a merge request with a possible fix [1]. I don't see an easy workaround for you. Maybe one of: - fix your networking environmnet. The router should not indicate to use DHCPv6, when no DHCPv6 server is replying. - if you don't need IPv6, set ipv6.method=disabled - `systemctl disable NetworkManager-wait-online.service` and write your own script that you order `Before=network-online.target` and `After=network.target`. You can implement their whatever policy suits you. - maybe `systemctl edit NetworkManager-wait-online.service` and set the timeout to something shorter. 30 seconds is conservatively long already. Of course, then the service will be marked as failed, so maybe also configure it to ignore the return value of the `nm-online` tool.
