Public bug reported: My onboard Intel network adapter has [X] Connect automatically but when I start my Gnome session, I always have to tell it to Connect which it does without error.
You can't see it in the Gnome dialog windows but this connection is set to also connect to a VPN. I setup this connection with nm-connection- editor.
