## Auto Config
Once the above is setup Network Manager should handle the auto configuration of your WAN/LAN/Modems/etc for you.
## Real World Uses and Troubleshooting
If you're using your Lollipop as a router and have a collection of preferred networks, at the command line (and/or using Cockpit), to switch access points on the fly:
```nmcli con down wan-wifi-connection-name
nmcli con up wan-wifi-connection-name```
If you receive an error message like ```Warning: password for '802-11-wireless-security.psk' not given in 'passwd-file' and nmcli cannot ask without '--ask' option. Error: Connection activation failed.``` the workaround is to include --ask in your nmcli con up command:
```nmcli --ask con up wan-wifi-name```
