Re: internet connection freezes

[Arnaud]

Hi,

I apologize for my first message, it was not clear.
I should have mentioned to replace <connection name> with the actual 
name of the connection (as listed by `nmcli connection`).

Sometimes, my wifi connection (handled by network manager) gets 
whimsical and the suggested command fixes it.


However, it does not apply in your case, sorry.
