Bug Description
After finding myself somewhat disappointed (again)with Windows 10, I decided to switch back to Ubuntu. Picking up 18.04 LTS "Bionic Beaver" - Alpha amd64 distro for my Surface 4 Pro, I got stuck with the network disconnections bug explained here; additionally, I have identified a few less problematic device issues like camera, poor sound quality, no touch screen, and no Bluetooth pen as so far. Back to the network adapter, after researching a ton of forums, I end up with this one hoping that the solution number one from Jesse will help.
I run "$ sudo nano /etc/NetworkMan
