it is about a month back when my wired 802.1X network connection stopped to work (working for several years without any issue up to that time). It tried to connect, asked for password, and when supplied, asked it again after a while, and again, and again...
I tried everything, including removing and recreating the connection definition, with and without certificates (updated these). It was at work so then went to our IT dept. and they tried basically the same and found, that the connection works without issues, if you check the option to ask the password every time. After the month I am a little tired of supplying the password after every reboot, so I tried and it is still the same, means if I check the option to ask password every time, I am asked for the password and connected. If I uncheck it I am also asked the password (regardless if i store it in the connection settings or not), but not connected and asked the password again. Has anyone similar experience?

Output of few commands (while connected, after trying unsuccessfully the connection with remembering the password once, then reverting back to ask it every time):
