Unfortunately modem data still breaks now and then. To place it in perspective, I loose mobile internet at most once in a few days nowadays. Lack of connectivity is clearly indicated by an icon in the top bar when it happens, so you are at least aware of it.
I have the impression that this connectivity loss happens less and less, but that is a subjective impression. Maybe I should try to measure to be more exact.

@janvlug@mastodon.social @codo@fosstodon.org It's a modem firmware bug that we have no control over. There are workarounds with various tradeoffs, you could put a watchdog for it too. In practice, for me it's only a minor annoyance since flipping the switch is so fast, but I can see it being disruptive for certain use cases. Fortunately the modem is easily replaceable so we won't be stuck with this forever.
