So yesterday it worked, pinging IPv6 adresses as well as having
acceptable internet connection speed.
Today not anymore, although I did not change anything (ok, wasn't there

Any help interpreting this messages would be appreciated:

Just time out because of lousy internet connecton?

At startup, when calling dhcpcd, messages indicate that things worked
