Hi, @raewintan
I know that sometimes some packages can be uninstalled somehow on reboot and there are cases where cloud-init is one of them. You can check if the package is present and currently installed on your droplet as well.
A similar issue was reported here as well: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/questions/no-internet-connection-after-droplet-reboot
You can check the answer posted from lukasea17033bb7e7ecf80fc21 and see the suggested steps if needed.
/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules
file/etc/netplan/50-cloud-init.yaml
fileapt update
andapt upgrade
Also have you tried to power off the droplet and then start it again instead of just rebooting it? You can perform this action from the control panel.
Let me know how it goes.
