Network disconnects and stays disconnected

I am having a problem with my network disconnecting overnight if I lock my PC and leave it running.

When I login the next day, the network is disconnected and I have to click on the network icon in the taskbar and select “connect”. My PC is still running when I login.

Do you logout from the user session in the evening?

  • Or, do you simply lock the user session in the evening and then, next morning, simply enter your password to unlock the user session?

[HR][/HR]Some more questions:

  • Which user Desktop Environment are you using?
    KDE Plasma?
    GNOME?
    Something else?
  • Which method are you using to manage the network connections?
    Network Manager?
    Wicked?
    systemd?
    Something else?
