You can use ethtool to verify whether your Linux system is correctly detecting your physical network connection status.
Depending on whether your networking is managed by Wicked or NM, you can usually change state with a command line,
I haven’t researched current methods Linux uses to detect network media state, there used to be other methods but I think today is a udev function.
As always, run an Upgrade (because this is TW) to see if that fixes the problem.

Please indicate if you’re using Network Manager or Wicked to control the interface.
In ‘/etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-eth0’ there’s a parameter “ETHTOOL_OPTIONS”.
You may need to set it up to something like «ETHTOOL_OPTIONS=’-s eth0 wol g’» where “wol g” can be replaced by what ever “ethtool” is indicating for “Supports Wake-on:”.
Documentation is in the ifcfg (5) man page and, there’s this Red Hat information as well: <https://www.linuxunit.com/rhel7-wakeup-on-lan-hibernate-and-suspend/>.
That’s an interesting suggestion although strictly speaking should not apply to this scenario. “WOL” is when a machine is woken up remotely whereas this situation of course is simply detecting the physical connection automatically when returning from standby or hibernation.

You’re correct! — I was being muddled – again …
But, it may be that, an additional script is needed to restart the systemd network.service when the system wakes up from hibernation; possibly triggered by the systemd-hibernate-resume@.service …
