No internet connection but connected to wifi

Greetings!

New here...I am having issues with internet connection. I am connected to my router via wifi (wlan0) and have tried eth0 with no avail, and i do have internet on other machine. This problem surfaced after full upgrade/update/dist-upgrade and reboot (graphical GUI install | NON VM). Just cannot figure this one out. :confused:

Would love some help,
Thank you kindly!

dist-upgrade had issue few days ago and you may want to do
apt-get clean
apt-get update && apt-get upgrade -y

also is NetworkManager.conf file edited to read managed=true its located in /etc/NetworkManager (and case sensitive)

Your tests are giving mixed results


You need to test to see if you are connected to the dns thru NetworkManager(NM) and then if the dns has a actual internet connection.

First your cat/etc/resolv.conf is in error

Try

cat /etc/resolv.conf

Note the space between cat and the /etc

You should see

# Generated by NetworkManager
nameserver 192.168.1.1

Note the 192.168.1.1 may be another IP and is your dns

Now try

ping -c 1 www.google.com

ping -c 1 www.facebook.com

This will partially prove that the dns has an internet connection

You can also try

cat /sys/class/net/wlan0/carrier

The wlan0 can be any device interface you are checking

The return of a 1 indicates internet connection and a zero indicates no internet connection. But we find the ping solution more reliable indicator as sometimes a one is returned but the internet access is so weak as to be unuseable.

Musket Teams

Thank you for your replies.

Here is what I have tried and still having the same problem. Connected but no internet.

root@lestat:~# cat /etc/resolv.conf
cat: /etc/resolv.conf: No such file or directory

Also when I search through GUI files and click on resolv.conf it states it is Broken and same for resolvconf base folder.


root@lestat:~# pine -c 1 www.google.com
bash: pine: command not found

root@lestat:~# cat /sys/class/net/wlan0/carrier
1

root@lestat:~# apt-get clean (No response)
root@lestat:~# apt-get update
Err:1 http://http.kali.org/kali kali-rolling InRealease
Could not resolve 'http.kali.org'

To shacvet

1. If you run the cat /etc/resolv.conf command and there is no dns connection you will get a No such file or directory

2. Your ping command was typed in error as you typed pine. However if you have no dns you cannot get an internet connection hence the result would be the same.

You can manually check thru the command line the Network Manager Connections to a network. Use nmcli

For devices type

nmcli d

For networks seen type

nmcli c

To get a list of nmcli commands just type nmcli [Enter]


It seems to us that you do not have a connection to a network thru NetworkManager.

mmusket33,

My apologies for the typing error. Since my other machine is not online, I am typing this in manually here, so the typing error was on this side. This is what I came up with...

(I did change which connection I am on to see if that was the problem. Hince the discrepancy in wifi names.)

FIXED!

I was perplexed to my resolv.conf file and decided to just trash it! Then I # echo "nameserver 8.8.8.8" > /etc/resolv.conf

Problem Fixed!!!

Thank you guys for your help!
