Talking How do I set up, or check, a network log to see when my network card disconnects?


I'm using Linux mint, but I'd like to be able to check my other networked machines as well.

It seems like my machine always experiences one full disconnect/reconnect every time it wakes from sleep. This happens while I'm playing Overwatch through Lutris, not sure if that's related or not.

Basically what I want to do is check some kind of log to tell me why this is happening and I also want to check and see if it makes my other devices on my network go down at the same time, because that would leave me to believe my router (Edgerouter x) might be the issue.

Any tips?

Examine the journal logging.

If using NetworkManager, you could do
Code:
sudo journalctl -u NetworkManager
To watch on the fly in a terminal
Code:
sudo journalctl -fu NetworkManager
