[opensuse] Network not working
Hello everyone! Today i encounterd a strange problem. My Laptop ran out of battery and opensuse quitted due to this. Here is the problem: After rebooting into the system my wireless network did not work anymore! It is correctly connecting to the router and getting a ip adress and i can also open the routerlogin but i cannot reach any stuff outside although the plasma module says that i have small up and down connection. I tried around some stuff and also tried to connect the laptop via cable, but still the same problem...Also with cable! I then tried to reload the kernel module (rt2800pci) but still the same problem. I also tried it with a different wireless network (my smartphone's) but it is all the same! I then reinstalled NetworkManager with the correct package with rpm -Uv Netw… but still the same! Nothing seems to help, but I am sure, that it is my system which is causing the problem… Thanks for help, Benjamin. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Check the contents of /etc/resolve.conf But I cannot tell you how to correct using Nm, yast network maybe will work to reset the search and nameserver fields as they are probably the problem. ps: your email client/editor does not wrap lines.

Another Info which might lead to the solution: I can load ip addresses but not the websites via name, so it seems that the names are not resolved properly... 134.76.12.3 leads to "it works". Would be cool if someone could help out… Thanks benjamin Gesendet: Donnerstag, 12.

So it's a DNS resolver issue - what does your /etc/resolv.conf contain? -- Per Jessen, Zürich (5.1°C) http://www.dns24.ch/ - free dynamic DNS, made in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

As Patrick said, check your resolver settings. This sounds like a DNS resolution issue. It is possible that your ISP _should_ be supplying values. If your router is connecting to your ISP via DHCP the ISP may also had back addresses to its won DNS service, and all you need to do is tell your own machine to use the router as a DNS proxy. That's how my ISP works. The ISP does a good job and caches a boatload of responses! My router caches the ones i use most often. So that option invovles setting your router address in /etc/resolv.conf Or possibly the address of your ISP's DNS service. Failing all that, you can enter "8.8.8.8" as a DNS service. So your /etc/resolv.conf might read nameserver 127.0.0.1 nameserver 192.168.1.1 nameserver 8.8.8.8 The first is the local cache :-) The second is the router The third is the fallback That's one way of doing it. It will work. No doubt there are better ways, more suited to your exact situation and context. For example, * You may have a crippled ISP that doesn't supply DNS service. * Your ISP may normally supply that but is suffering a bug/outage in this regard As they cay: YMMV As I say, Context is Everything -- A: Yes. > Q: Are you sure? >> A: Because it reverses the logical flow of conversation. >>> Q: Why is top posting frowned upon? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
