For wired desktops, I use the /etc/conf.d/net file. For laptops, where I need to connect to different WIFI networks regularly, I like the way NM just seems to work. I always had issues with wpa_cli/wpa_gui, even when following how-tos online. Never mind trying to connect to different VPNs. -- Joost
