Bug Description

Binary package hint: network-manager

I have two dynamically configured networks at home: one wired one wireless. When booting up network manager connects to the WLAN even if my computer is plugged in to the LAN thus needlessly prompting my for my WLAN network key (more specifically the key for my gnome-keyring).

This bus is similar to bug #47379. However it isn't a duplicate because that bug deals with conflicts between static and dynamic networks, whereas in my case both networks are dynamic.

This is with gutsy, using network-manager 0.6.5-0ubuntu14

disable your eth0 entry in /etc/network/interfaces or use gnome network admin dialog and set that interface to roaming (or disable it in there).
