Hello everyone,

I have been using Proxmox on my 2-node homelab for a while now, but one of my nodes keeps disconnecting from the network entirely. It seems to happen randomly after a couple of hours, and I haven't been able to find a good reason why it would. I have two nics in my PC, and both have this issue. Currently using the 2.5G Intel I225-V NIC. To me, it sounds like it might be some idle power-saving measure, but haven't been able to find something about it anywhere.

Here a couple of specs about the system:
Minisforum HM80
Intel I225-V NIC
16 x AMD Ryzen 7 4800U with Radeon Graphics (1 Socket)
Linux 6.8.12-16-pve (2025-10-14T08:58Z
pve-manager/8.4.14/b502d23c55afcba1

Any help is appreciated
