No internet access after network change and back
by grahamlinux3 from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5K9AD)
I am using lxle 18.04 i386 on old laptop 2009ish
Situation:
new install running fine seamonkey plus internet access okay
I had a reason to set the IP address to a fixed low number
I carried out CL tasked I wished on a embedded system over ethernet but not on original network
I put the ethernet(network) on the PC back to DHCP(automatic) reconnected to original network
The network information tab after disconnection and reconnection shows the DHCP address( not the fixed low number) and modem gateway.
The apps (seamonkey etc) cann't access internet websites saying "access denied"
This continues even after a hard reset /power down reboot.
WHY!! what point am I missing and how can I correct it.
Help Please.
I know Im being a donkey but I am after all a hardware Engineer
