I reported this previously, although the bug is different this time; previously I could restart the service effectively with "sudo service network-manager restart", however this time I have to turn on airplane mode and then turn it off again on my laptop in order to get Wi-Fi working again.
Sometime after my original logging of the bug, the intermittent service failure stopped. Unfortunately I did not keep track of which update the problem disappeared after.
For months the service was rock-solid without any failures, until the update last week 18/Feb/2020 and since then I've had to restart the service multiple times daily, very much the same as when I originally logged the bug.
Not sure if I should attach more info and what? Thanks
