I'm trying to connect the raspberry to the ethernet and wifi at the same time, but don't work.
Raspberry infos:
Model: Pi Model 3B+ V1.3
/etc/dhcpcd.conf:

Network description
I need to connect both because:
- The wifi provide network connectivity for ssh and internet (DHCP)
- The ethernet connect to the local network and communicate with a PLC (Programmable logic controller) (Static IP: 10.10.7.201)
Actually my laptop is temporarily connected to both the network because the PLC needs to be programmed, so I have connected all to my laptop.
As asked in the comments:
The Raspberry is connected wireless as client uplink to the internet router. It does not provide an access point. On the ethernet side there is a device wired connected to the Raspberry. The wired subnet is local and has no connection to the internet. I can confirm that.
Are there more devices on the wired subnet using a switch?
On the switch there are connected:
- Raspberry as 10.10.7.201
- PLC as 10.10.7.200
- MyLaptop as 10.10.7.3
Are there other devices wireless connected to the internet router?
Yes, there are many devices (It is the company network)
Should wireless connected devices communicate with wired connected devices?
No, the Raspberry is the only one device that must access the wired connected device (PLC). Essentially I have a Python flask webserver on the raspberry that act as interface between the user that connect to the webpage (using the wirless raspberry IP) and the PLC (That is on the wired connection)

Problem Description
The problem is that when I connect the Ethernet cable, the raspberry is unreachable on the WiFi network and can't access the internet from it, but both seems to be connected ifconfig:

When I diconnect the ethernet cable, the raspberry is reachable on the wifi connection and I can connect to it using SSH.
Attempts
I have looked on google how to setup both simultaneously and I have found this article, it is very old, but as you can see in the comment it should work.
NOTE:
/etc/network/interfacesis not actually used on the new raspberry, so I have edited the/etc/dhcpcd.confinstead./etc/default/ifplugddoesn't exist, so I have tried to install itapt-get install ifplugdand cofigured as in the answer, I have also added the line in/etc/rc.local.
Question
Do you have any tips for me on how I can correctly setup both connection to work?
I have tried to edit the /etc/dhcpcd.conf file to set the metric:
interface eth0
static ip_address=10.10.7.201/21
metric 300
#static routers=10.10.0.1
#static domain_name_servers=
#static domain_search=
interface wlan0
metric 200
Now the WiFi is reachable but not the ethernet cable, maybe I'm missing some route add command to perform?
