No internet

hello kaisens,

Every time I log in I can’t connect to the internet. I’m using a hardwired connection for the moment.

And everytime I cat /etc/resolv.conf I get nameserver ::1. Correcting it does the trick, but I have to do this everytime. It happened on other distros with me from before, but I save the changes and it’s fine.

How do I save the changes permanently? Thank you.

I’m not sure on posting outside links here, but I trust this: How To Set Permanent DNS Nameservers in Ubuntu and Debian

I’m not sure either, but thank you regardless!!

Happy to help.
I assume that sorted things out for you then.

I’ll give it a shot. But the article suggests that you download a separate utility to get it fixed since resolv.conf is updated by the system (systemd deficiency?) every time you reset a hardwired connection. I assumed there is sort of nano-fix-this-conf-file solution, but either way I’ll try that method.

keep us updated, I’ll try to help if needed.
BTW I don’t use or need:

apt policy resolvconf
resolvconf:
  Installed: (none)
  Candidate: 1.91+nmu1
  Version table:
     1.91+nmu1 990
        990 http://deb.debian.org/debian sid/main amd64 Packages
        990 http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian sid/main amd64 Packages >

and

cat cat /etc/resolv.conf
nameserver 103.86.96.100
nameserver 103.86.99.100

Don’t use my nameserver address, it’s a paid service, so it won’t work for you

also have a look here:

/etc/dhcp/dhclient.conf

I’ll also use a suspersde in that file:

cat /etc/dhcp/dhclient.conf
# Configuration file for /sbin/dhclient.
#
# This is a sample configuration file for dhclient. See dhclient.conf's
#	man page for more information about the syntax of this file
#	and a more comprehensive list of the parameters understood by
#	dhclient.
#
# Normally, if the DHCP server provides reasonable information and does
#	not leave anything out (like the domain name, for example), then
#	few changes must be made to this file, if any.

Hello @chyrei,

In the /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf, in the [main] section, add the dns=none line.

Like this:

[main]
plugins=ifupdown,keyfile
dns=none

[ifupdown]
managed=false
