Not necessarily. My netbook (stretch with NM) normally uses wires, and
that is the priority. I occasionally use wifi at home, and usually when
out, and use sleep quite often. When I open the lid, and tap a key to
wake the display, the wifi strength signal is already there. I do get a
'network is disconnected' box at this point, but this would seem to be a
hangover from the 'going to sleep' process.
I don't have an answer to the problem, but disabling Ethernet priority
with NM is not it.
