So, the first device eth0 is *not* managed (see README.Debian, what that means)
and the second, wlan0, is apparenly disabled via the radio killswitch.
If the second is not true, maybe this is due to an upgraded kernel i.e. driver
issue.
so far I can't see any NM related bug.

The auth.log fwiw looks good.
