So you'll want to actually try connecting with iwctl too. Autoconnect
will only work if you have previously connected successfully, i.e. a
network file exists in /var/lib/iwd.

Try capturing some debug logs once you've done 'station <iface> connect
<network>' in iwctl.

Alternatively you could put a file inside /var/lib/iwd which would let
autoconnect work (though you'll hit the same issue you previously saw
most likely):

/var/lib/iwd/JupiterIoT.psk
