I had a problem last year:
The solution there could work for you:
A script that automatically disables WiFi when Ethernet (Network) is connected:
#!/bin/bash
export LC_ALL=C
enable_disable_wifi ()
{
result=$(nmcli dev | grep "ethernet" | grep -w "connected")
if [ -n "$result" ]; then
nmcli radio wifi off
else
nmcli radio wifi on
fi
}
if [ "$2" = "up" ]; then
enable_disable_wifi
fi
if [ "$2" = "down" ]; then
enable_disable_wifi
fi
The script has to be created in a specific directory. After creation mark it executable:
chmod a+x /etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d/70-wifi-wired-exclusive.sh
