I'm currently using Kubuntu 13.10 with all the latest updates. Around mid-January networking started to fail and randomly stop working. I have to restart the PC in order to have it properly functioning again (and when I restart, it fails on stopping some process so I have to manually restart using the restart button.
I thought it might have been a problem with some update so I waited a month or so to create this thread since it doesn't stop working THAT often.
I use Kernel 3.11.0-17-generic (that's what 'uname -r' shows).
This is what syslog shows before networking stopped working today:

And then it goes on with network unreachable error nonstop.
Any clues on what could be going on here?
