The latest NetworkManager upgrade appears to have fixed the WiFi
connection on the T500, which is great :-)
And, it now automatically detects the RJ45 wired Ethernet and responds
properly. Double yay! :-))
I guess the proposed experimenting is now redundant, or is it worth
trying anyway?

Does "ifconfig -a" show the ethernet interface?
Does "journalctl -b" show the interface getting initialized?
Try "ethtool <interfacename>" with the cable out and
in. Particularly
note the "Link detected" line at the bottom.
"nmcli d"
"nmcli c | grep ethernet"

The journalctl output at that time would be very interesting.
