I’ve been having this issue very sporadically (sometimes a couple times a week, sometimes once a month). I’m curious as to how the more veteran folk here would try and narrow down the cause of this issue.

I can provide more info if needed!

Edit: More Info:

  • Using a static IP (no DHCP) through Netplan.

    Since you’re not really sure what the issue is, check all the logfiles around the time the problem starts. maybe you’ll see a service stopping or starting.

      Thank you I’ll do that! It’s hard to catch exactly when it happens. I think I need to get some monitoring and alert services up and running

        Easiest route you could go is setup a systemd timer which runs every 5 mins, pings an ip and write the result into a logfile. that way you have a timestamp for the problem start without going all out with monitoring.

        Good luck!

        Changedetection.io it can send you an email or message when your server fails to ping it.you will then have the times. Its a 5 minute job to set it up. Make an account and your email or number or whatever and make a curl request to the specific endpoint in a cronjob

        You don’t need to catch that moment live, it was already recorded.

        Take a look at journalctl -b -1 (previous boot).
