Questions where answers might help come to mind. Primarily, has this always occurred, or did it just start up in the last couple days? I'm on a new old secondhand laptop today. Just started using it yesterday. It's doing similar, but I can trigger it back on via "wicd-curses". A quick CTRL+R (refresh) for no particular reason and then CTRL+C (connect), and I'm back up and running. WHEN it happens again, I'm going to try to remember to try your various commands to see if I receive similar results. I'm going to copy those right now so they're available offline when it's time. A PS to this is that a couple of us were having a reconnect problem a while back. Mine would just suddenly stop and then refuse to reconnect. Always took a reboot (and sometimes 2) before it would start working again. PPS What's your eth0 being called? Mine's a moving target depending on which (older) laptop I'm using. I've used 4 different names in the last two weeks. Two of those renames were the long version that Users also see for wireless dongles. That was appropriate because I was using two different ethernet to USB port adapters. Those long values are tied to the specific products we're using. The other two values now flip between "enp1s0" and "eno1". Those are both for internal (onboard) ports. So far, it appears to be that those stay specific to two different laptops. I like that eno1 one. I STILL can't confidently remember that other naming pattern every time it comes up. Those values are entered under Preferences in the wicd-curses interface. I had a problem earlier today where it wouldn't connect back up. I had just learned that /etc/wicd/manager-settings.conf is relevant so I peeked at it. That value was wrong. It didn't refresh after I used the terminal interface. I changed it, and mine connected back up by itself as fast as that changed file was saved. Which brings me to ANOTHER observation through all of this. Sometimes sitting here counting to 10 or 15 seconds helps after clicking once to reconnect. That was an accidental find, a "patience pays" kind of deal. I'm presuming that Users having similar experiences may be doing the same thing I did. My old method was to keep repeatedly clicking a reconnect button every couple of seconds then finally close the program in frustration. These last few days, just sitting here staring at the screen while counting seconds gives it time to churn out a successful connection.
