Any suggestions.


I just installed CentOS Stream 9 on a workstation and hit a similar issue. For my situation, I did a minimal install, and in those cases, you may end up with a system that does not have the "NetworkManager-wifi" RPM (and required dependencies) installed, which prevents the WiFi connection from starting after the reboot. After I installed NetworkManager-wifi, wpa_supplicant, and a couple of other RPMs (manually, via RPMs on a USB device), the WiFi connection came up after rebooting.

Not sure if this is your scenario or not, though. I'm kind of surprised that this is still an issue; I believe I hit this a few years ago but don't have a bugzilla number for it.
