Can not save network config in Ubuntu Server 18.04












0














My laptop had been setup the wifi network connect during the first time installing OS. It worked just fine. However, when I bring my laptop to another place and add network config, the OS is now no longer able to auto connect the wifi like it's used to do.



I've found out that I didn't save my network config after add it from wpa_cli. So I follow this thread and fix it successfully. But after reboot, all the network config has gone even though wpa_cli said the config had been saved.



P/M: I always use sudo -i for this kind of task.
