I had something similar. In my case, having both the wired and the
wireless active caused the problem. the "solution" was:
a)  use the traditional ifup/ifdown method instead of (K)NetworkManager
(the latter one has never worked for me ....)
b) explicitly disable the wireless (e.g. ifdown wlan0; ifup eth0) when
using the wired connection, and explicitly disable the wired when using
the wireless,
     (e.g. ifdown eth0; ifup wlan0)

This is not as seamless as it should. But for me it worked at least.

Good luck
