Really this is for the connman list as it's a connman-specific question.

The answer is that connman defaults to turning the wifi "technology"
off by default.  If you want it to be on out of the box then you'll
need to tell connman that.  As an example, have a look at the connman
bbappend (specifically the guacamayo/settings file) here:
