No internet connection after booting - 18.04












0















Randomly, after booting Ubuntu 18.04LTS, I have no internet connection with ethernet.
I have a dual boot with Windows 7 (that I would like to avoid) and there is no problem with windows...
Thanks in advance for any piece of an advice.

          1. Click on connections symbol (top-right, near sound) and see if the wired connection is connected. If it is not connected, check for loose cables.


          2. Open terminal and run



          ifconfig -a



          Check if it is showing an IP address. Please share this output as it may help in troubleshooting.




          1. Try ping 8.8.8.8


          If reply is received, then you are connected to internet. There may be DNS issue, move to next step for further troubleshooting. If request time out comes, try the following command:



          traceroute 8.8.8.8



          and see if you are getting past your default gateway. Share this output too.




          1. If you were able to ping in step 3, try:


          nslookup google.com



          If you are getting IP in response, check the browser proxy settings (in case any proxy is enabled, remove it and then try).



          If request timed out comes, then go to edit connections ->wired connection-> ipv4 settings and manually add dns servers (you can add google dns IPs (8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4) and then try.

            I have encountered this also, except it only occurs when I press enter when in settings display, wanting to speed up boot process. If I allow the system to boot unbuntu after the several seconds wait period, ubuntu boots with my Internet connected, working fine. Also, with my dual boot system, if I use the down arrow to highlight&select Windows 10, and then press Enter, the system boots Windows 10 fine. Sometimes with Internet connected, sometimes without but there is always the easy UI tool to reconnect available. Apparently, when pressing Enter in the system setting menu when booting Ubuntu, it boots but the UI does not presenting the Internet UI icon and drop down in the upper right corner. I am a Linux newcomer, turning to Linux some thirty years after working with a Sun Unix OS.

              You're not going to have ifconfig installed on a vanilla Ubuntu 18.04LTS as it's been deprecated in favor of ip, and you won't be able to install anything sans connectivity. With that said, issue this command to get your hardware:



              lspci


              Look for the Network control



              00:19.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82579LM Gigabit Network Connection (Lewisville) (rev 04)


              (Alternatively, issue "lspci | grep -i network")



              This alone is not going to solve your problem but will give you a crucial piece of information which you can then use to search the net (on your phone or other connected computer) for the appropriate Ubuntu driver for your hardware. In the example above this would be the "Intel 82579LM Gigabit Network Connection" chipset.



              Best of luck.

                        I have encountered this also, except it only occurs when I press enter when in settings display, wanting to speed up boot process. If I allow the system to boot unbuntu after the several seconds wait period, ubuntu boots with my Internet connected, working fine. Also, with my dual boot system, if I use the down arrow to highlight&select Windows 10, and then press Enter, the system boots Windows 10 fine. Sometimes with Internet connected, sometimes without but there is always the easy UI tool to reconnect available. Apparently, when pressing Enter in the system setting menu when booting Ubuntu, it boots but the UI does not presenting the Internet UI icon and drop down in the upper right corner.

                                  You're not going to have ifconfig installed on a vanilla Ubuntu 18.04LTS as it's been deprecated in favor of ip, and you won't be able to install anything sans connectivity. With that said, issue this command to get your hardware:



                                  lspci


                                  Look for the Network control



                                  00:19.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82579LM Gigabit Network Connection (Lewisville) (rev 04)


                                  (Alternatively, issue "lspci | grep -i network")



                                  This alone is not going to solve your problem but will give you a crucial piece of information which you can then use to search the net (on your phone or other connected computer) for the appropriate Ubuntu driver for your hardware. In the example above this would be the "Intel 82579LM Gigabit Network Connection" chipset.



                                  Best of luck.
