Public bug reported:
Xubuntu 18.04 installed on a new Lenovo IdeaPad 330S; system is up to date (I
run Software Updater pretty much daily).
lsb_release -rd tells me:
Description: Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS
Release: 18.04
I am connected to the internet via a wireless router and although the
desktop panel network icon tells me I am always connected to the router,
every so often the actual internet connection stops working -- as in, I
am connected to the router, but websites won't load or Firefox will say
I am offline.
If I click the network icon on the desktop panel and uncheck and then
re-check "Enable Networking", the computer reconnects to the router and
the internet connection works again, at least for a while.
I cannot discern any specific pattern to this behaviour; it seems to
happen randomly -- but often enough to be really disruptive.
Other devices connected to the same router (two Android phones and an
older laptop running Linux Mint) do not have this problem.
My apologies if I didn't report this correctly or left out anything
important; I am just an end user and not an expert. Please let me know
if I need to provide any further information.
