Wifi connect, no ping
by jt1122 from LinuxQuestions.org on (#6GAF6)
Hi,
I've installed Sparky Linux rolling (=Debian Testing).
The machine uses a Planex wifi dongle based on the RTL8188SU chipset.
During installation everything went fine (connected by wifi to a hotspot).
When I login into the desktop it connects connect to the hotspot but ping fails: "Destination host unreachable".
/etc/resolv.conf:
nameserver 8.8.4.4 # added manually
nameserver 192.168.205.251
ifconfig & iwconfig show wlan0 is up and running
Any suggestions?
Thanks
