| eqnawr | why can't i connect to the internet besides through this irc chat. does anybody know what steps i could take? | 12:19 |
| eqnawr | firefox doesn't work. terminal unable to fetch to fetch | 12:20 |
| kc2bez | Which version of Lubuntu are you using? | 12:22 |
| eqnawr | latest | 12:22 |
| eqnawr | installed it a few days ago on this notebook | 12:22 |
| eqnawr | but also installed mongodb and pyenv | 12:22 |
| eqnawr | yesterday i still had internet in browser and terminal also | 12:23 |
| kc2bez | Which version did you download though? We have 3 on our downloads page. | 12:24 |
| eqnawr | can i type something in terminal to find out which version i have? | 12:26 |
| eqnawr | i wrote lubuntu 20 on the dvd i have it on | 12:27 |
| eqnawr | it was a few weeks ago when i downloaded it | 12:27 |
| kc2bez | `lsb_release -a` | 12:27 |
| eqnawr | lsb_release -a | 12:27 |
| eqnawr | No LSB modules are available. | 12:27 |
| eqnawr | Distributor ID: Ubuntu | 12:27 |
| eqnawr | Description: Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS | 12:27 |
| eqnawr | Release: 20.04 | 12:27 |
| eqnawr | Codename: focal | 12:27 |
| kc2bez | Ok thanks. | 12:27 |
| eqnawr | ty | 12:28 |
| kc2bez | Obviously the computer is connected to the Internet since IRC is working. You could look in preferences -> Advanced Network Connections to make sure everything is in order. | 12:30 |
| eqnawr | yeah it should be. i tried ethernet cable also. same thing | 12:31 |
| eqnawr | connected through wifi at the moment | 12:31 |
| eqnawr | don't know why it can't resolve http(s):// addresses | 12:32 |
| kc2bez | That sounds like a DNS issue. | 12:32 |
| kc2bez | You could open a terminal and try to `ping 8.8.8.8` that pings Google's DNS. You can use ctrl + c to stop your ping. | 12:34 |
| eqnawr | Network is unreachable | 12:34 |
| eqnawr | ping 8.8.8.8 | 12:34 |
| eqnawr | ping: connect: Network is unreachable | 12:34 |
| kc2bez | It might be worthwhile to restart your router or look at the settings there to make sure nothing strange is going on. | 12:36 |
| kc2bez | Or try another device on the same network | 12:36 |
| eqnawr | other devices work | 12:37 |
| eqnawr | am googling with my smartphone atm | 12:37 |
| eqnawr | connected through wif | 12:37 |
| kc2bez | So if you right click on the network icon in the tray and select connection information does everything look right? | 12:40 |
| eqnawr | i haven't checked it before. but it looks like i would imagine it to be right | 12:41 |
| eqnawr | don't know about DNS(1): fe80::1 | 12:42 |
| eqnawr | it has pv6 ip addresses | 12:42 |
| kc2bez | Yeah, that doesn't sound right | 12:42 |
| eqnawr | subnet masks all are ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff:: | 12:42 |
| kc2bez | It sounds like DHCP didn't hand out DNS to your device possibly. | 12:45 |
| lubot | <N0um3n0> Your dns is the localhost, change to 1.1.1.1 or 8.8.8.8 | 12:48 |
| eqnawr | okay thank you so far guys. helps alot. unfortunately i have to go for a few hours now. but ty ty ty | 12:55 |
| kc2bez | Take care and good luck. | 12:56 |
| eqnawr | will try to work it out later. but im a little bit smarter now. have a nice day | 12:56 |
| TinkinerThinkeri | is it possible to downgrade 20.10 to 20.04 lubuntu | 14:48 |
| TinkinerThinkeri | ? | 14:48 |
