Hey all,
I’m running Proxmox (mainly arr stack and some other media) and recently started experiencing a strange issue where the host intermittently loses internet connectivity. The only workaround I’ve found so far is to unplug the ethernet cable from the router and plug it into a different port. This restores the connection temporarily, but it drops again after a while (could be half a day, could be some hours), and I have to repeat the process.
This isn’t a configuration issue, i'm pretty sure — everything was working fine until two days ago. I haven’t changed anything on the Proxmox side (regular apt update, and the packets are not really networking related(?). To rule out the obvious, here’s the output of
Interfaces:
I'm not really sure how to debug such a weird issue. Could be a router problem? If so, how to maybe solve it?
EDIT:
Now that I'm thinking more about it, it might actually be a router problem, but what could cause it? After replugging the cable - proxmox server works ok, but to get NAS back into the action I have to restart the router. Could there be a setting on the router that might cause such an issue?
