nearly "nothing", at 30 minutes interval cron runs a wget command to
download a little 2 byte file  from https://ipv4.cloudns.net/ just to
inform the DDNS system of my actual IP address. From time to time I
loose network and I cannot longer have ssh access. In order to
overcome that, I wrote a service that reboots the operating system
when network does not work (better than nothing). The service
registers in a file the uptime just before issuing the reboot command:

Earlier I experienced the same on a Raspberry PI 3 however not sure if it was as often as every 30mins.

Thanks Bartek for the tips. Here I do not use dhcpcd, I use static IP address. I think in the past I tried to reload wpasupplicant service with no luck but I do not remember well. I think I can try it know.

I am going to try "service wpa_supplicant restart" trick and see what happens.

Ramiro.
