4 Getting a manager to write your wpa_supplicant.conf for you (in
5 effect), has been the right way of configuring wifi for the average
6 user for years now. It's a real shame that this isn't promoted more in
7 the gentoo handbook and/or the Wifi guide.

9 I added a patch to the wifi guide a while back, but I really find the
10 gentoo documentation workflow so over-burdening that I usually work on
11 gentoo-wiki instead. It's pretty dispiriting to see people using
12 troublesome tools when there's better ways out there :(
