Internet Connection

#1 Post by arilcastello »

Before this, i can surf the internet until i plug a TP-Link device TL-MR3020 with a broadband in it and plug it to the switch. From the switch i connect to my Debian using a network cable. Fyi the TP-Link device default ip is 192.168.0.254. After a few days later, i use my colleage internet using network cable and found out that the wired "icon" on the top right corner shows the 3 horizontal dot that means it's still connecting. Then i do some research in google and found out about the "Network Manager". So i try and i type the "cat /etc/resolv.conf" and the output is

# Generated by Networkmanager
nameserver 192.168.0.254

So, how do i solve this problem ? Please kindly do help me. Tq :)

Use this method to set your nameservers to 8.8.8.8 (Google) (or so):
