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&product=NetworkManager to describe the issue, and see if there's anything they can do to improve the situation.

Wifi is assigned the normal metric of 600 for both of its routing table entries. However ethernet is assigned a metric of 20100. I edited the connection details via nmcli to manually set the ethernet metric to 100. After a reboot, the link route (for the LAN subnet) correctly has a metric of 100. But the default route for eth0 is still 20100. nm-applet shows the wifi icon, correctly indicating that the default route is over wifi rather than ethernet. The only fix is to manually set the route after every reboot, or turn off wifi. This is a regression from 16.04. network-manager 1.10.6-2ubuntu1 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/1788659/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
