Hi Armelius!

I have a fresh installed F12 on my machine. For some reason, the NetworkManager always prefer to connect to Wireless network rather than to using the ethernet connected cable (System Eth0). Even when before turning on the machine, I already plug in the ethernet cable, after logging in to KDE the NetworkManager still picks the wireless connection. I have to manually disconnect from wireless, and choose System Eth0 everytime to use the ethernet.
I have a HP G60-535DX and both wireless and ethernet are on by default. I have to manually uncheck the wireless button with NetworkManager applet. This seems to be the same problem that you have.
Well, in my case it doesn't even connect to ethernet, although NetwokManager shows it as available. I have to manually click "System eth0", and then click "Disconnect" from the whatever connected wireless.
I don't want to uncheck the wireless button since I do want that option available in the case that I decide to unplug my laptop and roam. Furthermore, when I unplug the ethernet, it wont automatically connect to the wireless. I have to manually click the wireless. IIRC F8 of F10 does that correctly. -- AC
