ok so i have the new suse 11.2 installed it on my laptop with the intel wifi 5100 and i have no problem finding my network and connecting to it i can ping it i can log into it from firefox but i caanot access the internet if i try to go to google or ping a website nothing anyone envcounter this before I im new to linux fyi
this problem has seemed to resolve itself after a reboot it started working 
Never mind. These sorts of things happen to all of us.
Welcome to the Forums!
I just installed 11.2 and am having this exact same problem. Unfortunately, rebooting does not fix it for me.
I’ve installed all the latest updates using the wired connection.
If I unplug the wired connection so only the wireless is active, I can’t connect to the internet.
But the wireless is connected to my router and is active and everything.
I did not have this problem with 11.1.
If anyone knows how to fix this problem, please let me know.
Thanks,
– Sanjay
OK, I deleted my wireless connection in Network Manager and re-created it and now it’s working fine. Weird.
Oh well at least it’s working.

You had the bug in routing. After the NM update, it still affects any existing
connections. This has been discussed about 20 times in this Forum! Did you do
any reading??
