[SOLVED] Wifi Works on Phone/Windows, but not Arch
I'm using connman to connect to wireless networks, and have successfuly done so before, but it won't seem to connect to this particular wifi. Connman is able to grab an IPv4 and IPv6 address from the wifi, but can't connect to the internet.
The connection works fine on my phone, through ethernet on Arch, and through wifi on Windows (dual boot), so I know there's definitely internet.
Please let me know what other information I should provide, thank you.

Connect manually; it provides for better debugging and logs.

Re: [SOLVED] Wifi Works on Phone/Windows, but not Arch
So an update: it seems to work if I just leave the wifi to connect to the network on for an unusually long time (like 20-30 minutes). I'm going to mark this as solved since my initial issue is no longer relevant, although I appreciate the responses.
It's also a temporary wifi network for the next few weeks so it's something I can work around.
If anyone has any insight as to why it might be taking so long, I'd love to hear it. Otherwise thank you for the responses and I apologize for the unneccesary post.
