Package: network-manager
Version: 1.1.93-1
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
Every time I boot linux (2-ish times per day) NetworkManager won't
connect to my wifi, because it thinks my wifi card is an ethernet
device.
I try this:
nmcli d wifi list
And it outputs nothing.
However, this has lots of output:
iwlist scan
So it appears that the kernel knows it's a wifi card.
This command:
journalctl | grep "ath9k\|wlx00"
produces:

And it connects to my wifi network automatically, and works
beautifully until next time I start linux up.
The log is from a couple days ago because I've been waiting to see
if this problem was consistent. It happens exactly like this every
time for me.
Several days ago, I had a similar problem, but it was intermittent,
and I could fix it with ``/etc/init.d/network-manager restart``.
Now if I run that, it still won't connect.
My wifi device is:
Wireless N USB GNU/Linux Adapter
Atheros AR9271
Model: TPE-N150USBL
purchased from ThinkPenguin
It gets great reception, is very reliable, and works flawlessly
(including auto-connect on boot) under Windows.
Please let me know if there's further experiments, information
gathering, etc. that I can do that would help diagnose this problem.
Thank you, - Jason
