Wifi worked until today. Laptop is a lenovo G50.

Code: Select all

dmesg | grep wlan

iwconfig

Can you ping your gateway?

So there is connection, did you try and ping some public address by its IP address?

So you can get to gateway but no further? Why are you not answering my questions? How do you expect us to help you without details?

Considering all information you have provided so far we can conclude something is wrong.

I gave you hint to ping by IP address and see if you can reach internet, this hint also should give you idea to check if your DNS is working. You do nothing. Would you like someone to come and look at it? Are you willing to reimburse travel expenses?

Just by finding the webpage the wifi works? :wink:

I've installed "openresolv", rebooted and got websites finally loading via WiFi. But I would like to understand why this (installing "openresolv" or conifguring /etc/resolv.con) is necessary for WiFi but not for LAN adapters.

(Edit: PS: Maybe some [brackets] around the "solved" will make the title a little bit more readable?)
