What rsi_dbg zone will help debug this ? NM just uses wpa_supplicant underneath, so if you can get supplicant debug logs showing the failure, that would help. But perhaps the driver has a problem with scan MAC randomization that NM can be configured to do by default; that's been an issue with proprietary and out-of-tree drivers in the past. Just a thought. https://blog.muench-johannes.de/networkmanager-disable-mac-randomization-314 Dan
