I'm using net-auto-wireless instead of net-profiles, I could try to
change that. But I don't think that will solve it, as it doesn't even
work when connecting manually. I tried connecting to my network using
networkmanager, netcfg and manual wpa_supplicant. Neither work, so I
doubt it has something to do with the netcfg config.

It's worth the try though, thanks!
