regarding auto connect on wifi it is probably best for you (judging by your wuestion and reactions of others) to truly use NetworkManager (even I use it and I am here)

Steps to follow:
- Install NetowrkManager + the init script for it
- Disable current network setting program/configuration, I think Artix is by default using connman but I have no idea what you use
- enable network manager in you init (so it starts when you turn it on)
- start network manager service manually (or reboot)
- login to cli/tty and start $ nmtui
- configure the network connection and done, now it should connect by itself (or so I hipe)
