Commercial VPN intermittently drops connection

[Grell]

Hello, I have recently signed up for a VPN service, ProtonVPN.com, I am using Wireguard to connect to the VPN. I have noticed that every so often the connection will drop, say every 12 to 18 hours or so and I will be disconnected from the Internet/VPN. I will have to bring down the wireguard interface and bring it back up using the wg-quick command: wg-quick down wg0; wg-quick up wg0 It is not a big deal to have to do this every so often but I wanted to know what the problem was. I had this same issue with NordVPN when I was using that service with OpenVPN, it would also drop my connection around the same time interval and I would have to restart it.

This is my wg0.conf file

Does the connection stay up but no traffic going through it? Or does it disconnect and never automatically tries to reconnect?

The connection seems to just disconnect and not automatically reconnect. Wireshark shows nothing going through, just ARP packets. Ping doesn't work. The connection doesn't seem to be up at all.
