OK...

So I had working wifi, but I experimentally rebooted today and the
wifi does not acquire an IPv4 address. I thought I'd try your "modern"
way.

(I feel a bit like regular list members Gene Heskett and Douglas
Pollard complaining about how Ubuntu's networking is all different
these days! Gents, I apologise. I take it all back. I know just how
you feel now.)

First: I took you to mean a config file called /etc/netplan (i.e. that
/et/ was a typo, which it was).

It isn't. /etc/netplan/ is a directory. In it there is a file called
50-cloud-init.yaml

I thought this would not help me as I have disabled and removed
cloud-init, but I tried anyway.

I ran ``netplan apply`` without changing anything and it ran. OK, fine.

So I added the "wifis" section from your example, inserted my values,
and ran ``netplan apply`` again.

Presto, wlan0 had an IPv4 address. So, I rebooted, and it did after a
reboot, too! \o/

In preliminary testing, it seems like I still get pauses when I am
connected to the wired Ethernet port's IP address. Maybe a little less
bad. But if I connect to the wireless port, I do not seem to see the
pauses, so far.
