Nothing much to say.

After upgrading from 13.04, Ubuntu/Kubuntu holds a wired connection for a few seconds and then drops it. I can untick "Enable networking" on the Network Management tray icon and then tick it again to have the connection back for a few seconds. That's what I'm doing right now to submit this question.

I know this question seems to be a duplicate of https://askubuntu.com/q/361254/152522, but as you can see from my logs, network-manager has been upgraded directly to the latest version which is assumed to solve this issue.

UPDATE: I tried booting Ubuntu 13.10 from a live session and I'm experiencing the same problem, so it's not happening just on Kubuntu. Is there any regression in the kernel? A live 13.04 doesn't show this problem. Also filed bug #1241897.
