Hi Dustin, I would like to know which version of Ubuntu are you running on your laptop? Specifically, I want to know what's behaving as your dhcp client, is it dhclient or systemd-networkd?
Requesting IP addresses from two interfaces on the same machine to one DHCP server is sometimes causing trouble because in systemd-networkd it sends Client-Identifier to the server (which is about your D-Bus machine-id), and some DHCP server (as far as I know at least some versions of ISC DHCP Server) will take Client-Identifier as precedence over the interface mac address, thus generating IP address allocation problem. ** Changed in: network-manager (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to network-manager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1664748 Title: wifi connection drops, reconnects every 10 minutes Status in maas package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: I recently moved my home DHCP and DNS server over to MAAS (2.1.3 from xenial-updates). Since doing so, I've noticed that my wifi connection drops and reconnects (with corresponding Unity pop-up notifications) exactly every 10 minutes. I suppose this is due to the fact that MAAS sets DHCP leases to 10 minutes by default? Has anyone else noticed this behavior? Is there a suitable workaround? Increasing the DHCP lease time? Using static addresses? Something else?
