See original GitHub issue

Describe the issue you are experiencing

Here is the original issue, which is now closed: https://github.com/home-assistant/supervisor/issues/3610

I’m still having the same issue even after switching to beta and upgrading Supervisor to 2022.06.1.

[core-ssh ~]$ ha network update wlan0 --ipv4-method static --ipv4-address 192.168.0.89/24
Error: Activating connection failed, check connection settings.

Hi, I have exactly the same issue. Does anybody have a solution that does not include fresh installation?
