The problem is that my connection to the internet keeps getting screwed up every 5-10 minutes. I stay connected to my router, and I can still ping 8.8.8.8, but I cannot go to any websites. The solution I have found is to run
and it works again for the next 5-10 minutes. That is the only basis I am using to claim this is a problem with my DHCP client stopping.
Output after executing the above command:
Code:
dog@lapdog:~$ sudo dhclient
\RTNETLINK answers: File exists
autofs: unrecognized service
Starting fetch-ldap-cert (via systemctl): fetch-ldap-cert.service.

The message "autofs-reload: reloading autofs from dhcp exit hook" corresponds to each time I had to run my fix.
