netctl-auto not connect at startup

Hi.
Since 3 weeks netctl-auto not connect to my ap at start up. In order for this to work I have to manually:

netctl-auto stop myprofile
netctl-auto start myprofile

After this, it works well. I also use ifplugd (rather, it does not matter). What it might be?

This happened to me randomly after using netctl for a few weeks. Increase your DHCP timeout value in your profile(s) to 30. That did the trick for me.

Ok. For now, work. I set TimeoutDHCP=30
