Description Freek de Kruijf 2016-06-24 10:13:58 UTC 
On a Raspberry Pi 1B I use Wi-Fi dongle to connect to the network. After about one week of running I noticed the network connection was down, so I had to power off and on the system to get again a network connection. I found the following error messages in the journal:

jun 21 16:16:01 frans wickedd-nanny[474]: device wlan0: got signal linkDown
jun 21 16:16:01 frans wickedd-nanny[474]: wlan0: failed to bring up device, still continuing
jun 21 16:16:15 frans wickedd-dhcp4[456]: unable to rebind lease

In the meantime the system worked as expected and the next morning the power off/on resulted in a connected system afgain.
I wonder what caused the linkDown and why the system did not try to re-establish the connection.
