Summary of previous emails. All was well using openrc / dhcpcd / wicd Switched to systemd and all was well for weeks. Then failure occurred (non-global ctrl_ifname). Tried network-manager (NM) with no success.
New. Canek told me off-list that, when using NM, you don't enable dhcpcd, NM handles it all. Poof and when the smoke cleared ... Everything is again working. So if others are having a similar problem, be sure to systemctl disable dhcpcd. Thank you, Canek. allan
