Hi again ;-)

My network icon is plagued by the connectivity check question mark, but
only on wired connections. This is mildly annoying, but the logs show a
deeper issue

Via journalctl I see:

As you can see, there are two different failures, but for whatever
reason, there are 19 attempts in 8 seconds.

The first issue baffles me, as I _can_ connect fine, and get the
appropriate response (the X-NetworkManager-Status header):

$ curl -i http://conncheck.opensuse.org
HTTP/1.0 204 No Content
Cache-Control: no-cache
X-NetworkManager-Status: online
Connection: close
Content-Type: text/plain

The second issue baffles me, as my
/etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf is 'stock' and therefore should
default to an interval of 300 seconds == 5 minutes.

BTW, I don't see this when I use a wifi connection, only on 'em1'.
