So I tested... $ sudo systemctl restart systemd-networkd
... and got the same results - the "speed changed to 0 for port" messages and loss of connectivity requiring a reboot. Afterwards, however, I noticed that I was not completely up to date so I ran an `apt full-upgrade` which brought in the latest systemd packages (237-3ubuntu10.20). During the upgrade I again saw the "speed changed to 0 for port" message and I had to reboot in order to restore connectivity. Now when I run either test (`systemctl restart systemd-networkd` or `systemctl stop systemd-networkd`), the message does not appear and I do not lose connectivity. To rule out that it only appears to occur during an upgrade, I noticed that systemd has an update in proposed (237-3ubuntu10.21), so I enabled that repository, did an `apt update` followed by an `apt full-upgrade` and the install went perfectly. So this may very well have been fixed by 237-3ubuntu10.20, but I don't want to speak for the original reporter. Side note: after running `systemctl stop systemd-networkd` the systemd- networkd process disappears from my process list, but the network does not get brought down. I don't know if that is intended behavior, but in either case it is not directly related to this report. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1824806 Title: Network stops working after systemd update To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/systemd/+bug/1824806/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
