Just so to be clear...... The contents of my /etc/network/interfaces file are: # This file describes the network interfaces available on your system # and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5). source /etc/network/interfaces.d/* # The loopback network interface auto lo iface lo inet loopback # The primary network interface #allow-hotplug enp2s0 #iface enp6s0 inet static # address 192.168.1.77/24 # gateway 192.168.1.1 # dns-* options are implemented by the resolvconf package, if installed # dns-nameservers 1.1.1.1 8.8.8.8 # The primary network interface allow-hotplug wlp7s0 iface wlp7s0 inet static wpa-ssid JupiterRising wpa-psk (a long string of alphanumeric characters) address 192.168.1.99/24 gateway 192.168.1.1 # dns-* options are implemented by the resolvconf package, if installed dns-nameservers 1.1.1.1 8.8.8.8 If I have a file called dave in /etc/network/interfaces.d/ and its contents are: # The primary network interface allow-hotplug wlp7s0 iface wlp7s0 inet static wpa-ssid JupiterRising wpa-psk (a long string of alphanumeric characters) address 192.168.1.99/24 gateway 192.168.1.1 # dns-* options are implemented by the resolvconf package, if installed dns-nameservers 1.1.1.1 8.8.8.8 Are you saying that my /etc/network/interfaces file may look like the following so long as the line "source /etc/network/interfaces.d/*" (without quotes) is present? # This file describes the network interfaces available on your system # and how to activate them.

I encountered the same problems when I tried iwd on Fedora 35. The folks of Fedora community were unable to help me fix it. Thanks for asking, mon cher. Best wishes Stella
