snap install network-manager
Turn on the WiFi interface
network-manager.nmcli r wifi on
And verify the WiFi is on
network-manager.nmcli r
List the available network
network-manager.nmcli d wifi list
Connect to a network
network-manager.nmcli d wifi connect <ssid> password <password>
Verify it is connected to WiFi
network-manager.nmcli c
$ network-manager.nmcli connection edit type 802-11-wireless
nmcli> goto 802-11-wireless
nmcli 802-11-wireless> set ssid <your_ssid>
nmcli 802-11-wireless> back
nmcli> goto 802-11-wireless-security
nmcli 802-11-wireless-security> set key-mgmt wpa-eap
nmcli 802-11-wireless-security> set auth-alg open
nmcli 802-11-wireless-security> back
nmcli> goto 802-1x
nmcli 802-1x> set eap peap
nmcli 802-1x> set identity <your_identity>
nmcli 802-1x> set password <your_password>
