In 14.04 wifi is automatically enabled for a guest session, in 17.04 a guest needs to enter wifi password & create a keyring. Test case: Boot up to a machine using wifi that's password protected, at greeter choose guest. Once logged in notice nm-applet is running but no connection. Click on icon, choose a network, click on it.
