Internet connection stalls for no reason
by dilbert_uk from LinuxQuestions.org on (#57TD6)
Since about a week, every second day or so, my Internet connection gets stalled on my laptop for no apparent reason.
I am on a shared Internet connection and got an Ethernet cable from my landlord. I got three computers, normally all of them up and running when my laptop is on.
My laptop has a static IP address as well as the other two computers, a PC and an SBC.
When the browser on my laptop gets stalled, I check the connection and ping doesn't work. But ping works on the PC and on the SBC on the same network.
With the graphical Network Manager within xfce, I disconnect the Ethernet connection and connect it again, immediately.
And then it works again about one or two or three days until it happens again. Does someone has a clue what could be the reason for that or where to search for?
