You need to read the instructions which you see right before pressing
the Download button:

"After downloading the file, open the Chrome browser and browse to this
URL: chrome://net-internals/#chromeos. Then, use the 'Import ONC file'
button. The import is silent; the new network definitions will be added
to the preferred networks."

It is true that clicking on the file does not help, and there is no
auto-detection by the OS that this is a network configuration file. You
really need to navigate manually to that "Import" dialog.

Blame Google and the Chrome team for that - nothing we can do to improve
this at this point.

Greetings,

Stefan Winter
