Being able to connect to the internet is essential so lets set it up. Although `dhcp` will already work out of the box, wifi will not. Luckily there exist `wpa_supplicant`. First install the necessary packages:
Then configure `/etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf` to use `wpa_supplicant`:
```
[main]
dhcp=internal
plugins=ifupdown,keyfile
[ifupdown]
managed=true
[device]
wifi.scan-rand-mac-address=yes
wifi.backend=wpa_supplicant
```
Now restart the service and you should be able to connect to the Wifi.
```
# rc-service networkmanager restart
```
There are different frontends to configure connections but for now lets install `networkmanager-tui`:
```
# apk add networkmanager-tui
# nmtui
```
