I have a Dell P57G Inspiron laptop with an Intel Wireless 3165 adapter. I installed a clean install of 18.04. The wireless adapter recognises my router and I can connect to it but internet fails to work. Ethernet works fine.



In terminal, ping 8.8.8.8 produces "network is unreachable". Setting DNS to 8.8.8.8 in ipv4 does not help.



A Macbook Air and a Minix android box on the same router work fine, both on ethernet and wireless.

  • Sounds like you lack a default route. ip route should show you several routes, including one that looks kinda' like default via 192.168.100.1 dev eno1 proto static metric 100. (192.168.100.1 and eno1 are specific to my system).

got the same problem and found the solution in
https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2215975
as follows (thanks to SeijiSensei's Avatar):



In /etc/network/interfaces, you should have only this entry for the Ethernet connection:



#............
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp
#................


reboot your system and you will access the internet.
