I notice that the e1000e driver does not list the I219-V as a supported Ethernet interface in the Intel documentation for the Linux version of the driver. The longest I've seen it go without an "Internet connectivity drop" issue is about 36 hours. Repeat the disconnect and reconnect process again (aka re-start NetworkManager) and the Internet connectivity will be fine again. Often there can be many hours between the auth error and the actual loss of Internet connectivity.Īfter I reconnect the connection (via re-starting the NetworkManager service) all will be fine for up to a day or so, but then I stress test it with a bunch of searches using the browser and usually I can get the Internet connectivity to drop again. Note: The auth error does not coincide with the loss of Internet connectivity, but it does proceed it. In the NetworkManager logs I do notice an "auth" error about a file or directory not found. When the Internet connection drops, the only way to get back Internet connectivity is to disconnect the wired connection using the Ubuntu features and then re-connect (this restarts the NetworkManager service I notice). I can't figure out what would cause this type of behaviour. It usually happens when I'm using the search features of the browser. The Ethernet interface will drop the Internet connectivity when I'm using either the Firefox or Chrome browser. The Ethernet connection is configured to use NetworkManager via Netplan on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS Server version. I've configured the Intel I219-V Ethernet interface (wired Ethernet connection, there is no wifi on this system) using the e1000e driver for Ubuntu. Ethernet interfaces usually either work or they don't work. Never seen anything like this behaviour I'm witnessing on Ubuntu Server 18.04 before where I simply lose Internet connectivity while using a browser. I've turned up many, many new server and workstation systems over the years on both Linux and Windows.
