Bug Description

I have a laptop with a broadcom adapter that requires the wl driver. It works fine, but with an up to date daily artful, on boot I experience a 2m boot delay

      2min 137ms systemd-networkd-wait-online.service
          4.299s plymouth-quit-wait.service
          4.182s NetworkManager-wait-online.service
          3.064s iio-sensor-proxy.service
          1.041s keyboard-setup.service
          1.033s fwupd.service
           973ms dev-mapper-vgroot\x2dlvroot.device

Once the gnome shell display manager is displayed, I notice the wireless connecting right away. Obviously, waiting for network on a laptop is problematic in general, so I suspect there is just an oversight in the systemd service.

There is nothing in /etc/netplan (empty directory)
