no connection to server, no ssh, no gui, no ping

for several weeks i got this issue where the connection to server would suddenly die, having to restart the server, sometimes it takes days to get this sometimes hours, i changed the network card and same result

connecting a monitor to the machine give me this error

netdev watchdog : cpu 0: transmit queu

pveproxy is active and running
pvedaemon active and running

This seems like there are issues with the network card driver. It would be helpful to know what kernel modules and what NIC you have (e.g. with lspci -nnk | grep -A2 Ethernet) and what kernel version you are running (uname -r).

Kernel driver in use: r8169
Kernel modules: r8169
6.8.8-4-pve

google tells me this is cursed

Do you remember the name of the NIC it showed at the beginning?

Yes that is a NIC that has had its fair share of Linux driver/kernel problems.
Is your system fully updated?
Search these forums & you'll find enough info on this subject. Maybe start here.

Sorry I can't help more - I don't use that NIC currently.

Good luck.

i will order a new NIC, found a Intel priced decently
