Thanks to 'fedora' for replying,
I am not sure how to make the threads work when I see this list in batched mode. His reply is here:

|Do you need exactly NetworkManager? If you only have static connections
|you may use network.service instead of NetworkManager.service
|
|systemctl stop NetworkManager
|systemctl start network
|systemctl enable network
|systemctl disable NetworkManager
|
| suomi

Alas this does not work. Start network fails. It seems NetworkManager is not
the problem, the bridge probably is.
brctl show says:
bridge name    bridge id        STP enabled    interfaces
virbr0        8000.000000000000    yes

There was a nic-virbr0 interface, but some googling said it should not be there,
so I deleted it and see no change. So I still see powertop reporting

  22.5 W      0.0 pkts/s                Device         nic:virbr0

which seems unreasonable for a small device
However, now I realsie bumblebee is not working, so maybe the nvidia card
is the real culprit..I'll look there..
   Thanks,
   Bill

  Dear FC20 users,
I tried posting a few days ago as 'Help with fc20 NIC power? <https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/users/2014-January/444624.html>' but had no luck. My battery life dropped to about 20 mins with FC20. I THINK it is because NetworkManager is doing something bad with the virtual bridge. Certainly that is using all the power. But that does not show up in the 'Network' box in gnome.
So I am not sure how to fix it.
   Any ideas?
    Thanks,
       Bill
