Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: network-manager
In the office I have a docking station for my Dell Latitude E-5500 laptop with
LAN cable connection on eth0.
In the office we also have a WLAN which I use when I take the laptop to a
meeting room.
I was used to set both (LAN eth0 and WLAN "MayWifi") to autoconnect.
Then recently I had the problem that on login the WLAN connection was
considered as the somewhat "main" connection which leads to the problem
that I do not have access to particular resources without first
establishing a VPN connection. This is a different story (Bug 629284)
but the reason I unchecked the autoconnect option for the WLAN
connection.
So, but now when I do not set the WLAN to autoconnect, I also don't get
the LAN autoconnected although available.
In the attached screenshot(s) you can also see that the wired LAN
connection is showing "never" in the "Last Used" column which is
definitely wrong as I use it on a daily basis.
