Apparently most of these are from 2016, which feels like a fucking life time ago. Had to look up the time-line of his "career".

He came to prominence with his 2016 memoir, Hillbilly Elegy, which describes his upbringing in Middletown and his family's Appalachian values. It became a New York Times bestseller and attracted significant press attention during the 2016 United States presidential election. Originally, Vance was a critic of Trump and in 2016 wrote a critical piece in The Atlantic against him, but he later came to support him. Vance launched his first political campaign for Ohio's Senate seat in 2021 and won the Republican nomination after being endorsed by Trump. He defeated Democratic nominee Tim Ryan in the general election.

Since you're not really sure what the issue is, check all the logfiles around the time the problem starts. maybe you'll see a service stopping or starting.

This might not be applicable to your use case, but maybe it helps.

Couple of years ago I had a problem where ONE windows laptop was unable to access the internet. Sometimes it would work right away, sometimes it took 1 or 2 reboots, sometimes the damn thing wouldn't budge.

lo and behold, it turns out the windows laptop was assigned a DHCP address that one linksys router had as a static ip. Why that resulted in a sporadic error and not a constant one I'll never know.

So next time you have this issue, rip out the network cable from the server and try to ping the ip the server is supposed to have.

Other than that, check the journal if something start to pop up around the time you experience the problem.
