usually wifi reconnects after dropping,but sometimes it will show the wifi log in screen already filled in,waiting to press on connect after that a new connection will form with #2 after the duplicate ssid.

sometimes i just untick/tick the 'enable networking'.other times,it wont reconnect.

i tried to form a script,but it continues to accumulate & count even when there is no badpings before reaching the max limit of 30 counts.

while true; 
do
 if ! [ "$(ping -c 1 google.com)" ]; then
 echo "no ping,will reset" 

 #counter of bad pings here
 count=1 
 while [ $count -lt 30 ]
 do
 count=`expr $count + 1`
 echo "$count"
 # insert here: retest for good ping
 sleep 1
 done


 nmcli networking off 
 sleep 5 
 nmcli networking on


 #sleep for 15sec wait wifi on ssid search 
 secs=$((1 * 15))
 while [ $secs -gt 0 ]; do
 echo -ne "$secs33[0Kr"wifi reactivate in- 
 sleep 1
 : $((secs--))
 done


 if ! [ "$(ping -c 1 google.com)" ]; then
 echo "still offline for $count x @ $(date)" 

 else 
 count=0
 #echo "reconnected at $(date)" 
 echo "ON"
 fi
 else

 echo "ONLINE"
 sleep 1
 clear
 fi
done

I think this is closer to what you want but can definitely be improved further:

while :; do
 if ! ping -c1 google.com >/dev/null 2>&1; then
 echo "no ping,will reset" 
 #counter of bad pings here
 count=1 
 while [ "$count" -lt 30 ]; do
 echo "$count"
 # insert here: retest for good ping
 nmcli networking off 
 sleep 5 
 nmcli networking on
 if ! ping -c1 google.com >/dev/null 2>&1; then
 echo "still offline for $count x @ $(date)" 
 else 
 #echo "reconnected at $(date)" 
 echo "ON"
 break
 fi
 ((count++))
 sleep 1
 done
 else
 echo "ONLINE"
 sleep 1
 clear
 fi
done
