You need a way to disabuse it of that notion. > Not necessarily. My netbook (stretch with NM) normally uses wires, and that is the priority. I occasionally use wifi at home, and usually when out, and use sleep quite often. When I open the lid, and tap a key to wake the display, the wifi strength signal is already there. I do get a 'network is disconnected' box at this point, but this would seem to be a hangover from the 'going to sleep' process. I don't have an answer to the problem, but disabling Ethernet priority with NM is not it. -- Joe
