THANK YOU GUYS!!! YOU ROCK!!!!

THE WI-FI PROBLEM FIX:
___________________________________________________________________________
I have been lucky enough to type in the wrong wi-fi password to find a
fix for the bug. After that I did many other tests to find out the
smallest amount of steps to fix the bug.
The bug was fixed by removing the wi-fi connection in the sys-net
Network Connections, and re-adding the wi-fi by inserting first a
wrong wi-fi password, and then the right wi-fi password.
In case a user has the same problem I wrote some more detailed steps below:
The bug was fixed in this way: when you connect to the wi-fi and it
doesn't work, meaning, you go to sys-net terminal and for example use
"ping google.com -c 5" and it returns "ping: unknown host google.com"
e.g. it doesn't have internet connection, you simply go to your
'Network Connections' of sys-net and delete your wi-fi connection
(going in the top right corner in your Qubes panel>right click on the
internet connections icon>edit connections>click on your wi-fi
connection>select delete>press the confirmation delete button (note:
you don't necessarily have to remove the ethernet wired connection if
you have one)), at this point re-connect to the available wi-fi, and
insert A WRONG PASSWORD. Once the password wi-fi reappers because the
psw you typed is wrong, you insert the correct one. Done, your
internet connection should work now, try in the sys-net terminal "ping
google.com -c 5" and you should be able to ping google.

ETHERNET PROBLEM FIX:
___________________________________________________________________________
To user 'cooloutac':
Thank you for answering as well. Although I did not need to remove the
ethernet controllers to make the Wi-fi work in the end, I tried to do
so to make the ethernet work by removing the Wi-fi network card from
the devices list as you suggested.
MY MAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
IT WORKED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IT WORKED!!!!
I changed the devices in the sys-net settings, left only the ethernet
card, rebooted, when desktop loaded the message "CONNECTION
ESTABLISHED" appeared.
Went to sys-terminal, pinged google, it worked.
YOU GUYS ROCK!!!!!!!! THANK BOTH OF YOU A MILLION
TIMES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
