Same problem. 
while connecting and disconnecting, nm-applet spits:
** (nm-applet:18917): WARNING **: _nm_object_get_property: Error getting 'Devices' for /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/ActiveConnection/141: (19) Method "Get" with signature "ss" on interface "org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties" doesn't exist

** (nm-applet:18917): DEBUG: going for offline with icon: notification-network-ethernet-disconnected

my network adapters:
03:00.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8111/8168B PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet controller (rev 01)
04:06.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82557/8/9/0/1 Ethernet Pro 100 (rev 09)

Disabling ipv6 in nm-applet does not solve any problem.

Title:
  [regression] sharing a network with other computers no longer works in
  oneiric

Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I have been using my laptop to share a wireless network with my
  desktop using a wired connection eth0. This has worked well in Natty,
  but in Oneiric, this no longer works properly. I'll provide the steps
  I followed:

  1) clean install of Oneiric 64bit from October 2nd. (I've used several others too with the same results)
  2) set up wireless. No problems.
  3) select the wired interface in nm-connection-editor, edit and Method: shared with other computers in the IPv4 page. 

  What happens is that the network is configured and works, but only for
  a few seconds. Then the network goes into a loop of
  connect/disconnect. I can use the shared connection on the desktop to
  a certain degree, but it becomes extremely slow and things like IRC
  cannot be used since the connection is dropped every two seconds or
  so.

  If I boot a Natty live session, this works perfectly using the exact
  same settings. I will attach my syslog.
