Boot up from cold boot no network

I am very interested in the answer because my desktop does the same thing if I tell it to hibernate, boot into my windows dual boot, and reboot back into linux. 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.

This only happens if I try hibernating and then boot into windows (not full shutdown, not hibernate and boot directly to linux). It has always happened since I enabled hibernation (arch wiki instructions). Having Systemd restart NetworkManager does nothing. Setting up a new network configuration with networkmanager does not solve it. This is with my motherboard ethernet and my wireless USB adapter. I spent some good energy trying to figure it out, but never did.


Did you update kernels today? What if you downgrade?

Put the solution as a boot script. Or at least bash profile instead of run commands (otherwise it will run every time you spawn a terminal shell)

> A few months ago my Dell Optiplex 7010 running Ubuntu 20.04 started booting up without the network.  I'd reboot the machine and  the network was there.  If I shut down the machine and turned it on again, no network.  I thought something was wrong with the built in ethernet adapter, so I bought a usb adapter, disabled the built in one and the problem went away until today.  Now it's happening with the usb ethernet adapter.  Rebooting the machine fixes the problem gets the network up and running.  If I start with a cold boot and reboot at the grub screen, I get the network.  I have 3 SSDs and 2 HDDs.  I have the same video card that I had before this problem first showed itself.  It's a GeForce GT 710.
