Yes, I know. But still users need to do this manually. And the info may be 
hard to find if you have no Internet.

Alternative is simply just keeping 1.4.0 from testing for a few more days.

I managed to get 1.4.0 work reliably for me (both Ethernet with DHCP at
work and Wifi at home) by adding the following configuration:

[device]
wifi.scan-rand-mac-address=no

I added it first to /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf, but later
moved it into a new file /etc/NetworkManager/conf.d/20-mac-address.conf

For the record, this is with 1.4.0-3 but 1.4.0-2 worked as well.

Please report this issue upstream at
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=NetworkManager
(and report back with the bug number).

It would be helpful to provide a more complete log file when filing this
upstream.

https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/NetworkManager/Debugging
has some more information
