Why doesn't it start with the last active connection? I suspect that for 99% of the users this will be the most common case. Also, why does it wait 10s before it tries to connect to anything? >> What does your /etc/network/interfaces file look like? Is your Ethernet >> device present there? If so, try commenting it out and restarting NM. Indeed I have a iface eth0 inet dhcp in there. But removing it doesn't seem to make any difference in this respect (even after `systemctl restart NetworkManager`). > Also check the priorities of your WiFi and Ethernet connections.
