I've had an issue with this all morning since network-manager got an update this morning, but just now *while this bug was being submitted* it decided to correct itself. What I was getting was, on a machine (Dell XPS 13 9370) with WiFi and a (Caldigit) Thunderbolt 3 dock with an ethernet port: After the network-manager update I noticed everything was slower than I was used to, and in gnome-shell the network icon showing was the WiFi one, not the wired one. Looking at the output of route, or route -n for simplicity, I would see this: rachel@rainbow:~$ route -n Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 0.0.0.0 192.168.1.254 0.0.0.0 UG 600 0 0 wlp2s0 0.0.0.0 192.168.1.254 0.0.0.0 UG 20100 0 0 enp63s0 169.254.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 U 1000 0 0 wlp2s0 192.168.1.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 100 0 0 enp63s0 192.168.1.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 600 0 0 wlp2s0 So the metric on the default route on enp63s0 had 20,000 mysteriously added to it, which would obviously make it extremely low-priority. The system was choosing the wifi connection instead, which isn't that great in my office, hence observable slowness. Now, this morning, this seemed to be the sticky situation. It didn't show any sign of changing, whatever I did, after restarts of network- manager, undock/redock, reboots, etc. I could change it manually with ifmetric (and it would work), but that was about it. I would have reported the bug then, but I had to go out. When I got back I plugged in and initially saw the same thing again (that's where the above snippet was pasted from). But *while* the ubuntu-bug network-manager command was running, I noticed the gnome-shell network icon switch to wired, checked again, and saw: rachel@rainbow:~$ route -n Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 0.0.0.0 192.168.1.254 0.0.0.0 UG 100 0 0 enp63s0 0.0.0.0 192.168.1.254 0.0.0.0 UG 20600 0 0 wlp2s0 169.254.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 U 1000 0 0 wlp2s0 192.168.1.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 100 0 0 enp63s0 192.168.1.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 600 0 0 wlp2s0 So now the wifi connection has 20,000 added to it, which may still be wrong? But I wouldn't otherwise have noticed it because the system is again *behaving* as expected. This all seemed to happen after the network-manager upgrade (from 1.12.6-0ubuntu4 to 1.15.2-0ubuntu1) this morning. I can't say if these metric+20,000 values were present before then, because I didn't have any cause to go looking at it, it always just worked. Could it be some issue with how the newer network-manager, or one of its associated packages, is figuring out the metrics on new connections? Like it's running some new heuristic to determine which one should really be the preferred? If it's like it was just now, when it fixed itself after a minute or so, that's not really a problem, but if it's like it was this morning when it just seemed to be stuck with the ethernet connection at 20100, it is.
