Hi,

I use arch with i3wm. Been using for around 3 years. Still lovin it. 
Dont really need a network manager when netctl can handle my wifi pretty 
nicely. Actually I prefer typing over mouse-ing, so I would always 
prefer a tool like netctl over mouse-driven tools such as network manager.

Peace.
