Bingo!  That's fixed the wired connection, which is now working perfectly.

I still don't see the previous NetworkManager behaviour of selecting 
just the wired connection if present:  rather, the ethernet and the 
wireless NICs both connect now.  (I don't know whether that's a 
problem?)   Anyway, I can just disconnect the wireless if I need to 
(e.g. for upgrading).

Thanks very much for your helpful advice.
