I have read about it. But I do not know if my problem is something to do with it because with Kernel 4.13, it should work. Actually, right now it is working without any problem, internet is connecting just fine and fast. I really don't know what is causing this. I am suspecting something to do with my router and the debian's the static IP setting but not sure.

Yes, I am using wired connection. different port of the router, yes I will try that. But it seems it is some kind of software side problem. I don't know what it is though and I have no idea where I should be looking at.

It seems that you are using wired connection. Try to replace Ethernet cable and look at kernel messages if something wrong is going on with your driver or hardware. Changing your LAN cable to another switch/router port could be an option too. Kind regards Georgi
Sluggish internet connection
Hi all, Can someone teach me where should I be looking for internet connection problem. Up until recently I had no problem with internet connection but since lat couple of days ago, I have been having this strange problem that sometimes it stops connecting the internet. It's not persistent problem rather it occurs randomly. Funny thing is that if I refresh network connection just by clicking network manager the connection revives for a couple of seconds but again it stops (meaning the web stops loading). At the time I am writing this e-mail, no problem with internet but a while ago, it wasn't connecting. It's not the problem with my ISP or router as I am able to connect with other PC or smartphones. Does anybody give me ideas what should I be looking at? I set static local IP address but changing to automatic DHCP doesn't change situation. Debian Testing (Buster) Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation Ethernet Connection (2) I219-V (rev 31) Any help or tips will be appreciated. Thanks.
