gollark: IWD does not show Ad-Hoc networks in its scan results and does not support scanning while connected in Ad-Hoc mode. Thus connecting to an existing Ad-Hoc network is done in the same way as setting up a new one and requires an NM Connection object to be first set up. With nm-applet this is done using the Create New Wi-Fi Network… dialog and either selecting and existing Connection or selecting New….
gollark: I think this predates your nickname.
