I've already had the wpa_supplicant confs with eduroam, freeWifi (eap-sim auth) and wpa network and I'd like to use it without using connman.

So I disabled it with 

systemctl disable connman.service

but now npm and nodejs take almost 100% CPU and the journal is full of:

Just reflash with the latest base iot image:

http://www.rcn-ee.net/rootfs/bb.org/testing/2017-02-05/iot/

The default Seeed BeagleBone Green Wireless image has everything tied
up to the wifidog captilve portal..
