I am receiving a strange (at least to me) popup message.
- KNotify Mon Jul 18 09:32:27 2022: This device appears to be connected to a network but is unable to reach the internet.
- KNotify Tue Jul 19 06:54:24 2022: This device appears to be connected to a network but is unable to reach the internet.
- KNotify Tue Jul 19 10:28:15 2022: This device appears to be connected to a network but is unable to reach the internet.
The last two ocurrances span a reboot. I have no clue at this point where to start debugging this and would like suggestions on at least to identify the referenced device.
Thank you.
I poked around in the log with
sudo journalctl -b -t NetworkManager|less
and observed some potentially useful information related to the Network Manager and the startup of my VPN.

- KNotify Sat Jul 23 11:04:03 2022: This device appears to be connected to a network but is unable to reach the internet.
Other log entries also show the same 10 second delay between the “CONNECTED_SITE” and the “KNotify”.
I see no errors in the log entries (at least what I would call an error).
