I think I should stay with Ubuntu for now, but thanks. I've found it's often best to not overcomplicate things.

I am very interested in the answer because my desktop does the same thing if I

I can regain network access again by hibernating again and booting back into 
linux
directly (no windows). Pretty annoying because it takes a solid 2-5 minutes to
shut down when hibernating. At least it still does the job, just with delay.
2 to 5 minutes to shut down isn't unusual with systemd. Also, Ubuntu is ultra
friendly and hardware tolerant, but there's a cost: Layers upon layers upon 
layers
of abstraction, making troubleshooting a needle in a haystack. Also, 
NetworkManager
is kind of twitchy and overly dependent on dbus.

If you no longer need the training wheels Ubuntu provides, I suggest you switch 
to
Devuan, or if you're comfortable with a close to the metal Linux with an 
excellent
rolling release packaging system, Void Linux. Both of these get rid of systemd.

I suggest you use runit as your init system: It's much better than sysvinit. 
Devuan
has a package for it and Void comes with runit straight from the factory. If 
you use
Devuan, you might want to use sysvinit as your PID1, and then supervise your 
daemons
with runit.

If your computer has a fixed IP address, you can set it with the upnet.sh
shellscript performed as the last thing in the boot (put it in rc.local). For 
the
long version of upnet.sh that's good to use with Qemu virtual machines, see
http://troubleshooters.com/linux/qemu/nobs.htm#hostnetworking . For a short and 
to
the point upnet.sh, see the following and modify as necessary:


=======================================
#!/bin/sh

# MAKE SURE IP FORWARDING IS ENABLED
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward

# DEAL WITH HOSTNAME AND LOCALHOST
hostname=`grep -v "^\s*#"  /etc/hostname | head -n1`
ip link set dev lo up

# UNDO ANY POSSIBLE STUFF FROM PREVIOUS UPNET.SH
ip link set dev tap0 down
brctl delif br0 tap0
ip link del tap0
ip link set dev br0 down
ip addr del 192.168.0.102/24 dev br0
ip addr del 192.168.0.2/24 dev br0
brctl delbr br0
ip link set dev enp40s0 down
ip addr del 192.168.0.102/24 dev enp40s0
ip addr del 192.168.0.2/24 dev enp40s0

# BRING UP enp40s0
#ip addr add 192.168.0.2/24 dev enp40s0
#ip addr add 192.168.0.102/24 dev enp40s0
ip link set dev enp40s0 up
#ip route add default via 192.168.0.1

### GET br0 UP AND RUNNING WITH RIGHT IP ADDRESSES
ip link add name br0 type bridge
ip link set dev enp40s0 master br0
ip addr add 192.168.0.2/24 dev br0
ip addr add 192.168.0.102/24 dev br0
ip link set dev br0 up
ip route add default via 192.168.0.1

### DO THE TUN/TAP STUFF
ip tuntap add tap0 mode tap
brctl addif br0 tap0
#ip addr add 192.168.0.66/24 dev tap0
ip link set dev tap0 up
==================================

The nice thing about the preceding is it's portable between distros. You can 
even
use it in Ubuntu to restore your static network connectivity if if vanishes. 
Note
that if you're not using taps or bridges you can eliminate a lot of it, but 
you'll
need to uncomment a couple things. Obviously, you'll need to change IP 
addresses to
your desired network device name, static IP and default route.

HTH,
