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.

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?
