I installed arch on a laptop. When it came to configuring the wifi, I didn't really know what I was doing, and I believe that I've done something that is now preventing me from getting it working.
I can get my network to connect if I do the following manually...
ip link set wlp2s0 down
netctl restart wlp2s0-ella-5GHz
I've also done the following...
systemctl enable netctl-auto@wlp3s0
... but it doesn't work. From systemctl...
● netctl-auto@wlp2s0.service loaded failed failed Automatic wireless network connection using netctl profiles
● netctl-ifplugd@enp0s25.service loaded failed failed Automatic wired network connection using netctl profiles
I'd appreciate some help trouble-shooting this. I don't understand why I have to bring wlp2s0 down with the ip command before I can use netctl.
Thanks.

The ArchWiki advises using `start` rather than `restart`

Make sure that the interface is set down before your next reboot.
