Yes, I was intending to try those places I mentioned above. This other
suggestion was a last resort, and I was sort of thinking the same thing. I
only want wlan0 not to connect until I do so manually.

This is bad idea. It would cause ALL interfaces not to come up at boot,
including lo, which can cause some deamons not to start and other to behave

Removing auto clause from wlan0 (or whatever you wifi interface name is)
in /etc/network/interfaces should be enough for stopping auto connect at
startup if you are not also autostarting some gui misconfiguration program. So here's the problem: I got my network
working reasonably well, except
for one glitch, that it automatically connects at startup. I've tried
wicd and tdenetworkmanager, as well as the knetworkmanager. Also I've
dabbled with pretty much every other network management tool, and
nothing changes. I set the manager so that it does not connect
automatically (which worked fine for me in Debian Jessie), but now it
keeps resetting the configuration, and automatically connects on
startup.
After I am up and running, I am able to connect and disconnect with few
problems, but this is really annoying.
Is it better to change the configuration file in one of these
locations? /etc/network/interfaces
/etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf
Hello Bill,
in case I understood correctly and you don't want to connect to the
internet at boot time, have you tried this in "/etc/default/networking"?:
# Set to 'no' to skip interfaces configuration on boot
#CONFIGURE_INTERFACES=yes
