Arch and Debian installers want internet connection but manage to install most of their load w/out it. No Linux installer I'm aware of can configure wwan. I've only a wwan connection. On Ubuntu I configure it w/ NetworkManager but Arch and Debian do not preinstall NM. So,Is there a preinstalled way to connect to wwan on Arch and/or Debian? If so, what is it? How to configure it?Perhaps you can recommend a lightweight alternative to NetworkManager? Obviously, it must be able to configure wwan connections. I don't mind moving a few package files on USB stick from one machine to another (NM has too many dependency packages for this)
