Waking up the Network
Interesting problems seem to plague me from time to time. The current problem isn’t yet solved but I’m working on it. After a sleep cycle, IPV6 networking isn’t starting.
Try:
- Checking the network cables, modem, and router
- Reconnecting to Wi-Fi
ERR_INTERNET_DISCONNECTED |
In the broken Fedora 30 VM, I checked the status with the nmcli tool:
sudo nmcli general status |
It returned:
STATE CONNECTIVITY WIFI-HW WIFI WWAN-HW WWAN asleep none enabled enabled enabled enabled |
The STATE should return connected and connectivity return full. Unfortunately, that’s not the case.
There was little surprise that the next check:
sudo nmcli device |
Returned the following:
DEVICE TYPE STATE CONNECTION virbr0 bridge unmanaged -- ens33 ethernet unmanaged -- lo loopback unmanaged -- virbr0-nic tun unmanaged -- |
In a working instance, it should return:
DEVICE TYPE STATE CONNECTION ens33 ethernet connected ens33 virbr0 bridge connected virbr0 lo loopback unmanaged -- virbr0-nic tun unmanaged -- |
I’m currently troubleshooting what failed by leveraging an article on How to Configure Network Connection Using ‘nmcli’ Tool and the Gnome nmcli documentation. Naturally, when I get it fixed, I’ll finish this article.
