||
|
|
||
|
This portion of the repo contains the information on the aggravating
|
||
|
issues reguarding my installs tendency to have DNS troubles and
|
||
|
connectivity issues.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Issues:
|
||
|
1) DNS
|
||
|
* has issues with resolving domain names (ex: google.com)
|
||
|
2) Connectivity
|
||
|
* has trouble with even connecting to outside servers

|

||
|
### Information Gathered
|
||
|
|
||
|
When using systemctl and systemctl status to check the behaviors of dhcpcd and systemd-resolved i
|
||
|
found that one of the possible problems is that my device is changing M.A.C and IP addresses about
|
||
|
every 4-5 minutes.
|
||
|
|
||
|
I would ping (8.8.8.8) one of googles public dns servers to test if my connection was working,
|
||
|
however when I did the following message was returned " ping: connect: Network is Unreachable".
|
||
|
|
||
|
This by itself could mean a that either my network is offline or my computer just isn't connected to my wifi.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The other issue with my os not being able to resolve the host name. This happened everytime I tried
|
||
|
to ping a server using the domain name. When I tried originally the message "ping: google.com: Name
|
||
|
or Service is not known" was returned.
|
||
|
|
||
|
