Networking doesn't start correctly when logging onto a console instead of GUI (MATE) in Ubuntu 18.04
by achim_59 from LinuxQuestions.org on (#4XFVG)
I'm trying to repair a neighbour's laptop (I'll just call him "D") and came to the conclusion I really need to run an update. The difficulty is that the laptop won't boot to a normal GUI interface (D uses MATE), so I am restricted to using the console. My attempts at resolving the problem can be seen in this forum thread:
https://www.linuxquestions.org/quest...356/page2.html
That brings me to the current problem. In order to run apt-get update and associated commands, I need to have a network connection. The information below is essentially from my last post on that other thread.
To find out what the networking status on D's machine is, I ran ifconfig with the following result:
Code:enp2s0: flags=4163<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
inet 192.168.1.65 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.1.255

TX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 carrier 0 collisions 0I've been told that ifconfig is deprecated, but the results are still valid. Interesting here is the first entry "enp2s0", which has been given the IP address 192.168.1.65, This address was allocated by my IPCop, so D's laptop obviously has an address within my home network. [By the way, before anybody wastes their time telling me that IPCop is no longer supported, I already know and it's not really relevant here.]
Next I tried to find out what DNS settings were in use. From what I've read so far the command systemd-resolve --status should provide some information. The results were less than encouraging:
Code:Global

In a first attempt I tried nmcli device status:

So I tried nmcli device show to find out what the device IDs are (I've left out the WLAN stuff since that's not relevant. Besides... it isn't activated from what I can see in the results so far) :

Code:IP4.DNS[1]: 192.168.1.1That is the IP address of my IPCop DNS. Now I know that works, otherwise I wouldn't be able to post this at all. Things like this give me the "heebee-geebees", because I cannot figure out what's going on. I have no idea how to find out either, because I'm not really a networking expert. I've been reading the man pages for nmcli, but I' don't know what I can do to rectify a situation where everything seems to be correct... er... apart from the fact that I can't access the internet from D's machine.
If anybody can provide some advice on how I can fix the internet access using the console, I would be very grateful.

Code:IP4.DNS[1]: 192.168.1.1That is the IP address of my IPCop DNS. Now I know that works, otherwise I wouldn't be able to post this at all. Things like this give me the "heebee-geebees", because I cannot figure out what's going on. I have no idea how to find out either, because I'm not really a networking expert. I've been reading the man pages for nmcli, but I' don't know what I can do to rectify a situation where everything seems to be correct... er... apart from the fact that I can't access the internet from D's machine.
If anybody can provide some advice on how I can fix the internet access using the console, I would be very grateful.
