Win 11, DUO, Global Protect and Idle time | Lose internet connection
Hello,
My company has upgraded to Windows 11.
We use DUO to log in
We use Global Protect as a VPN
I am hard-wired via ethernet and use docking stations to run multiple monitors (8). The ethernet cable from the docking station goes to a switch and then to my AT&T router for the house.
When I go to lunch and come back, my network adapter drops the connection and does not sign me in with DUO. I have to use my offline code, and then my Global Protect VPN does not and will not reconnect after countless tries. I have to reboot for the internet to reconnect fully.
After testing two times, I’ve noticed that it seems to work if I unplug my ethernet cable from my docking station and then plug it back in.
Has anyone else had this issue? Is it a known bug? Is the fix to unplug my ethernet cable after a 30-minute idle time after the computer sleeps?
Thoughts?
