If your distribution uses NetworkManager, starting `naxalnet.service`
will have stopped it. Start NetworkManager again:

## How it works

The program naxalnet copies some `systemd-networkd` configuration files

## Similar projects
The following projects are similar to naxalnet, but are not designed
to be used in a laptop or computer with wifi adapter. If you live in
an area where the materials required for any of them are easily
available, consider using them instead of naxalnet.
