I came this commit hash to terwiz[m] on IRC, who is trying to figure out
what the last version of Spectrum that worked on their NUC with Nvidia
graphics is.

+  <title>Wireless Networks</title>
+  <para>
+    For a desktop installation using NetworkManager (e.g., GNOME), you
+    just have to make sure the user is in the
+    <literal>networkmanager</literal> group and you can skip the rest of
+    this section on wireless networks.
+  </para>
+  <para>
+    NixOS will start wpa_supplicant for you if you enable this setting:
+  </para>
+  <programlisting language="bash">
+networking.wireless.enable = true;
+</programlisting>
+  <para>
+    NixOS lets you specify networks for wpa_supplicant declaratively:
+  </para>
+  <programlisting language="bash">
+networking.wireless.networks = {
+  echelon = {                # SSID with no spaces or special characters
+    psk = &quot;abcdefgh&quot;;
+  };
+  &quot;echelon's AP&quot; = {         # SSID with spaces and/or special characters
+    psk = &quot;ijklmnop&quot;;
+  };
+  echelon = {                # Hidden SSID
+    hidden = true;
+    psk = &quot;qrstuvwx&quot;;
+  };
+  free.wifi = {};            # Public wireless network
+};
+</programlisting>
+  <para>
+    Be aware that keys will be written to the nix store in plaintext!
+    When no networks are set, it will default to using a configuration
+    file at <literal>/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf</literal>. You should edit
+    this file yourself to define wireless networks, WPA keys and so on
+    (see wpa_supplicant.conf(5)).
+  </para>
+  <para>
+    If you are using WPA2 you can generate pskRaw key using
+    <literal>wpa_passphrase</literal>:
+  </para>
+  <programlisting>
+$ wpa_passphrase ESSID PSK
+network={
+        ssid=&quot;echelon&quot;
+        #psk=&quot;abcdefgh&quot;
+        psk=dca6d6ed41f4ab5a984c9f55f6f66d4efdc720ebf66959810f4329bb391c5435
+}
+</programlisting>
+  <programlisting language="bash">
+networking.wireless.networks = {
+  echelon = {
+    pskRaw = &quot;dca6d6ed41f4ab5a984c9f55f6f66d4efdc720ebf66959810f4329bb391c5435&quot;;
+  };
+}
+</programlisting>
+  <para>
+    or you can use it to directly generate the
+    <literal>wpa_supplicant.conf</literal>:
+  </para>
+  <programlisting>
+# wpa_passphrase ESSID PSK &gt; /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
+</programlisting>
+  <para>
+    After you have edited the <literal>wpa_supplicant.conf</literal>,
+    you need to restart the wpa_supplicant service.
+  </para>
+  <programlisting>
+# systemctl restart wpa_supplicant.service
+</programlisting>
