Dear Maintainer,
in Chapter "5.2.1. GUI network configuration tools",
the command in list number 1 is incorrect [the Group (netdev) and User (foo) 
should be in opposite order].
The incorrect command:

$ sudo usermod -a -G foo netdev

The correct command is:

$ sudo usermod -a -G netdev foo

Can be verified by executing. Also correct command in Arch Wiki:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Users_and_groups#Overview

An alternative:

$ sudo gpasswd -a foo netdev

where the user and group are in opposite order.

Yours sincerely,
Sami Saarinen
