So i installed 13.1 on its release and love it so far. I made Yast use the Network Manager and everything worked from then up to today. Although it definitely is my fault, I just can’t remember what I did or installed. So this is what I was doing before I had network problems: I’ve been trying to get virtualbox up and running, so I believe through Yast > Patterns I installed Linux Kernel Development packages, C++, and base, dkms, make etc. I added my user to the virtualboxusers group, and right after booting I believe my internet stopped working. As of right now, Im connected to my wifi through Network Manager, says im connected and even shows the connection speed. I know this post is a mess, but I am on my tablet, connected to the same network my machine is connected to. Also, as root i used the commands iptable --flush output, forward, input and that fixed my wifi for about a couple of minutes before going out again. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.
EDIT: Posting from machine after using the iptables --flush. Here are some outputs before it goes down again:

I also went to configure the firewall to see if maybe it had been turned on again, and it gave me the message: Another firewall is active on your system.

Just a quick reminder, using the iptables royal flush seems to fix it for a couple of minutes:
iptables --flush OUTPUT
iptables --flush FORWARD
iptables --flush INPUT
