That depends. Your method only works with open and WEP-ecrypted
networks, but it won't with WPA. One can dick around with wpa-supplicant
manually, but IMHO it is simpler to just download the network-manager +
dependencies somewhere else.

IIRC some cards will work only with network-manager and not with the
method you described, but I am not sure about that. And anyway of course
the other way round is also true (cards working with your method but not
network-manager)
