Non-networking pro here. Very new to all of this, but could really use some help.

I'm abroad and using a travel client router (Slate AX GL-AXT1800) to connect to my server router (Flint GL-AX1800) at home. Generally speaking, everything works as intended, I verify my IP address from abroad, its the same as my home router, I have decent connection, etc.

But like...5-10 times a day "the internet will stop working". Overall, it seems random, but sometimes perhaps tied to some event (computer goes to sleep, etc). If I stop and restart the wireguard client in my settings, it goes back to normal. Other than the annoyance of having to do this and risk of losing connection mid conference call or something, I'm also concerned I'm losing the connnection and possibly leaking traffic when its down.

Currently set up with ethernet from abroad router to travel router, then wifi to computer if that makes a difference.

Any way I can get it to stay connecting, running, etc?
