Had the same problem: NM was hanging after system start and i had no nm- applet and no network connection.
Solution for me on Ubuntu 15.10, wired lan, manually entered network configuration was: sudo killall NetworkManager sudo service NetworkManager start sudo reboot Shouldn't systemd start NM? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1434986 Title: Not working network connection after boot To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/network-manager/+bug/1434986/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
