   As a rule, the system(s) report "system is up to date" within a   
   few minutes. One of them is a Pi5 with wired ethernet. the other   
   is a Pi2 on WiFi.    
      
   How long might it take for services to restart   
   after that point on the machine with wired ethernet?    
      
   Thanks for writing,
