Re: [Desktop-packages] [Bug 1654918] Re: No Internet access with default of Automatic (DHCP)

Actually there seem to be two related or unrelated issues. One seems to be purely DNS and the other Network Manager... Dunno. My original issue was Network Manager. Now ok for no reason i can see. The more sticky one with my latest upgrade was no problem linking to my WiFi but no internet when

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1654918] Re: No Internet access with default of Automatic (DHCP)

I'm also experiencing this exact bug. Upgrading from 16.10 to 17.04 did not display the problem, but fresh install of Ubuntu 17.04 does -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to network-manager in Ubuntu.

Re: [Desktop-packages] [Bug 1654918] Re: No Internet access with default of Automatic (DHCP)

Regret to inform that an upgrade from 16.04 is also displaying the bug. Reduced to using Google DNS on ipv4 (8.8.8.8) in order to work around it David On 14 Apr 2017 14:11, "David Oser" <1654...@bugs.launchpad.net> wrote: I'm also experiencing this exact bug. Upgrading from 16

Temporary workaround which seems to work most of the time (though, 'timing' - as you are suggesting - sometimes is an issue, requiring a couple of 'sudo apt update' attempts in Terminal to successfully resolve all repositories) enter 8.8.8.8 (Google's DNS) into the relevant 'alternate DNS' in

Fortunately I had retained 17.04 full installation on a USB stick. Downloaded new update via Google DNS on IPV4, then deleted 8.8.8.8 and tested. Seems to be working. So far so good Thanks for the heads-up hrvooje! Best David On 18 April 2017 at 07:09, hrvooje <1654...@bugs.launchpad.net>

Re: [Desktop-packages] [Bug 1654918] Re: No Internet access with default of Automatic (DHCP)

I'm sorry @hrvooje - it worked for me. But I have now risked upgrading my main laptop from 16.10 to 17.04 and it appears to be working perfectly without the necessity for tweaks or workaronds or alternative of 8.8.8.8 , etc, etc. I guess the latest in-situ upgrade contained its own bugfix. David
