yeah, that e1000e driver. I have read about it. But I do not know if my
problem is something to do with it because with Kernel 4.13, it should
work. Actually, right now it is working without any problem, internet is
connecting just fine and fast.
I really don't know what is causing this. I am suspecting something to
do with my router and the debian's the static IP setting but not sure.

Have a look at this thread:

Seems that problems with Linux and Intel's I219 are not uncommon. Maybe
on of the various "linux-firmware" packages might help, too - I did not
have the time to look through all of them.

Thanks for quick reply.

Yes, I am using wired connection.

different port of the router, yes I will try that.

But it seems it is some kind of software side problem. I don't know what
it is though and I have no idea where I should be looking at.

There could be different reasons. It seems that you are using wired
connection. Try to replace Ethernet cable and look at kernel messages if
something wrong is going on with your driver or hardware. Changing your
LAN cable to another switch/router port could be an option too.

Sluggish internet connection

[A_Man_Without_Clue]

Hi all,

Can someone teach me where should I be looking for internet connection
problem.

Up until recently I had no problem with internet connection but since
lat couple of days ago, I have been having this strange problem that
sometimes it stops connecting the internet. It's not persistent problem
rather it occurs randomly. Funny thing is that if I
refresh network connection just by clicking network manager the
connection revives for a couple of seconds but again it stops (meaning
the web stops loading). At the time I am writing this e-mail, no problem
with internet but a while ago, it wasn't connecting. It's not the
problem with my ISP or router as I am able to connect with other PC or
smartphones.

Does anybody give me ideas what should I be looking at?

I set static local IP address but changing to automatic DHCP doesn't
change situation.

Debian Testing (Buster)
Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation Ethernet Connection (2) I219-V
(rev 31)


Any help or tips will be appreciated.


Thanks.
