I have been affected by this one for a time now on a 18.04 LTS install
on a laptop with both wired and wireless ethernet. Not a fresh install,
but one that had been upgraded from earlier releases.
I have both Wireless and wired ethernet configured. NetworkManager is
taking care of network IP address assignment, which is done dynamically
on both cases through DHCP from the AP/router.
Every now and then, I get both network interfaces with no IP address assigned
whatsoever. It may happen after resuming from suspend (laptop being powered
down from hours to days) or while actively using the laptop. In all cases it
seems NetworkManager service is still running and "dhclient" processes are up
and running for the interfaces. For the latest time this has occured to me:

For me, getting IP addresses assigned again to interfaces is as easy as
running "service NetworkManager restart".
Last significant logs in /var/log/syslog prior to losing connectivity (IP
address) on both network interfaces (wired "enp0s25" and wireless "wlp3s0") are
as below:

It can't be a coincidence both network devices lose the IP addresses due
to some "timed out" event exactly 20 minutes apart. As the event comes
from NetworkManager, so must be the bug causing the observed behavior.
Please check if possible to strengthen NetworkManager in the current and
upcoming releases. Mine being now:
