NetworManager is very good on wireless connections - I haven't had
problems with that for quite a while, but I removed the wired
connection from NM. I can't remember the details, but I was having
some problems, and the ability to ifup was an advantage. Since then
I've been using this mixed system. I don't know whether that can
cause any problem - I didn't expect it to, but of course there could
be issues I don't understand.

I tried it, and the result was 1. eth0 has the specified address, and
wlan0 has the dhcp address, both reporting 0 errors.
Any other tests you would like me to run?
