I use networkmanager, and so I started with the instructions from https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/dr … on_laptops and used the networkmanager-dispatcher-dropbox script to try and get it to work, but that failed, even after working around the three seconds timeout, as instructed by https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ne … dispatcher.
Curiously enough, even the script from https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php … 3#p1012343 doesn't appear to work. I'm pretty much lost as to where I should go from here.

1. Bug Dropbox to fix this issue.
One of the problems I was having earlier was that AUR package installs Dropbox in /opt whereas Dropbox auto-updates and installs itself in ~/.dropbox-dist. So, basically all scripts designed run Dropbox out of /opt will fail. The following worked for me.
Quit Dropbox.
# Dropbox won't be able to write to this folder - mtorromeo
rm -rf ~/.dropbox-dist
install -dm0 ~/.dropbox-dist
Uncheck "Start Dropbox on system start"
sudo systemctl enable dropbox@<username>.service
pacaur -S networkmanager-dispatcher-dropbox-systemd
systemctl reboot
BTW This script has always worked for me.

That seems to have done the trick. I'm marking this as solved for now. Thanks for the help.
