No internet access

English Network/Internet
#1

Hi,

I’ve updated the laptop of a friend from Leap 42.1 to Leap 15. Wifi and wired connection are perfectly working with
my local network (192.168.0.xxx)
If I tried to connect to another network (wifi, wired), I get an ip adress but no internet access.

I really don’t know what is going wrong.

Somme help is welcome!
Thanks,
v

Some basic diagnostics first…

Check that a valid IP address is assigned

ip a

and that a default route exists

ip r

Can you ping a well-known internet IP address successfully?

ping 8.8.8.8

then by hostname…

ping google.com

If it’s name resolution that’s failing, check

grep "name" /etc/resolv.conf

If no valid nameserver is present, do (as root)

netconfig -f update

and then check that DNS resolution is now working as expected.

See how that goes.

/etc/resolv.conf contains just one line:
nameserver 192.168.0.1

Bur I’m conected with my smartphone and the ip is 192.168.43.161

Should In just delete the line?

Thanks a lot!
