[Bug 1788659] Re: network manager assigns ethernet default route metric of 20100
Whether it's been running for 30 minutes or not doesn't change much though; the connection *can* fail, and the connectivity checking is a pretty simple HTTP check. Could you please attach debug logs for NetworkManager (with the connectivity checking enabled) -- see https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/NetworkManager/Debugging#Other_NetworkManager_Debugging. Better yet, please file this bug upstream with NetworkManager developers at https://bugzilla.gnome.org/page.cgi?id=browse.html=NetworkManager to describe the issue, and see if there's anything they can do to improve the situation.

[Bug 1788659] Re: network manager assigns ethernet default route metric of 20100
I eventually figured out that's what was happening. However, the connectivity check is not working correctly. In my case, there is indeed ethernet connectivity, despite it thinking that there isn't. It will assign the network "penalty" metric even when ethernet has been connected for 30+ minutes, so something is causing it to incorrectly fail the connectivity check. If I override the metric manually, it works and uses ethernet, so there is not a problem with the connection. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1788659 Title: network manager assigns ethernet default route metric of 20100 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/1788659/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1788659] Re: network manager assigns ethernet default route metric of 20100
This is working as designed. NetworkManager now uses a metric "penalty" when connectivity cannot be detected as full for a connection, and reduces the metric accordingly. This makes it so that if you're connected to both wired and wireless, and your wired connection becomes bad but the wireless connection remains, you should retain connectivity. Similarly, if you need to use your own custom routes to use alternative paths to be online, this makes sure this alternative can be used automatically (the lowest metric is what gets used). You may be able to avoid this issue by removing package 'network- manager-config-connectivity-ubuntu' from your system if it is installed -- disabling connectivity checking, which will avoid going through these code paths. ** Changed in: network-manager (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1788659 Title: network manager assigns ethernet default route metric of 20100 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/1788659/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Marking Incomplete for now, in case there's more to it than a connectivity checking issue. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1788659 Title: network manager assigns ethernet default route metric of 20100 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/1788659/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1788659] Re: network manager assigns ethernet default route metric of 20100
I have seen this for quite some time as well. Usually connected to both wifi and cabled network at work (while laptop is docked), which is quite handy for when I go to meetings and undock my laptop, but will stay online since I am also on wifi. After a while though, and after re-docking the laptop, the metric for the connections change and the wifi takes priority (eth0 gets 20100 metric, wifi stays on 600). I am still online though, but the wifi is quite a bit slower at times. Solution for now is to manually re-click my wired connection in nm- applet, or just disable auto-connect of the wifi altogether at work. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1788659 Title: network manager assigns ethernet default route metric of 20100 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/1788659/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
