Hi!
Was reading up on Connman on Arch wiki and found the following really useful:
“By default ConnMan does not prefer ethernet over wireless, which can lead to it deciding to stick with a slow wireless network even when ethernet is available. You can tell connman to prefer ethernet adding the following to /etc/connman/main.conf:
[General]
PreferredTechnologies=ethernet,wifi
Exclusive connection
ConnMan allows you to be connected to both ethernet and wireless at the same time. This can be useful as it allows programs that established a connection over wifi to stay connected even after you connect to ethernet. But some people prefer to have only a single unambiguous connection active at a time. That behavior can be activated by adding the following to /etc/connman/main.conf:[General]
SingleConnectedTechnology=true”Source: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/ConnMan#Prefer_ethernet_to_wireless
This has been bugging me. Say I’m downloading some large file and insert a Cat5 cable to use a much faster wired connection. Connman keeps using the slower wireless connection. I had to restart the computer to get it to use eth0. Now it behaves as I would expect, it switches over to the wired connection and abandons the wireless one. Maybe this tip can help someone else.
