Patrik Nilsson, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better.
As per http://us.acer.com/ac/en/US/content/drivers an update to your computer's buggy and outdated BIOS is available (1.29). If you update to this following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BIOSUpdate does it change anything? For more on BIOS updates and linux, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Bug_reporting_etiquette . Please note your current BIOS is already in the Bug Description, so posting this on the old BIOS would not be helpful. As well, you don't have to create a new bug report. Once the BIOS is updated, if the problem is still reproducible: 1) Please provide the output of the following terminal command (not perform an apport-collect): sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date 2) Please make a comment specifically advising on if there was an improvement or not. 3) Please mark this report Status Confirmed. If it's not reproducible, please mark this as Invalid. Thank you for your understanding. ** Tags added: bios-outdated-1.29 ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Low ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1533323 Title: Linux kernel holds lost ethernet connections Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: If a connection to a router is lost while you have active ethernet connections to hosts (on the Internet), networking can't be resumed before all connections are closed. Many software packages repeatedly try to resume their lost connections, which must lead to a human intervention to quit all software before the connection to the router is re-established. Seems as it is the kernel that prevents connections to the router, by holding lost connections. Even if you in disable networking by selecting "Enable Networking" from the drop down menu, and re-enable it, you can't get through to the router before all user software has quit and closed all connections holding the lost host connections. This bug has existed for a long time(=years), but I have never learnt what the error could be.
