e doesn't have network manage support. the way this is done is the same as e's
connman support. e sets up as a connman AGENT. that means when things like
passwords are needed connman asks e to ask for a password. also e is allowed to
control the connections like wifi on/off, change network etc.

it works much the same with networkmanager. e doesnt have any support for it.
so use connman if you want this to work, not networkmanager.
