Wget resolving URL forever

Hi,

I recently updated my Arch System, but, as always, I had to update Chrome manually. So I tryed to do it the usual way, by compiling the package I got from AUR.
While running the makepkg command, I noticed that it would not update the donwload progress.
I wanted to check if the problem also happened with downloading anything else in the konsole, so I used many URLs with WGET and it stays in the "Resolving ..." forever.
When I try to download the same files by pasting the same URL on the web browser it just goes very quickly.
When I update my system with pacman - Syu, it also works, doenloading and installing all the updates.
Any idea of what that might be?

wget will read /etc/resolv.conf directly, curl won't

stat /etc/resolv.conf
cat /etc/resolv.conf
resolvectl status

My mistake.

My terminal was in Tor mode. All I had to do was comment the . torsocks in the ~/.bashrc file.

I'm sorry, this is very specific. Should this post be moved somewhere else?

If the premise of the post was wrong, you can report it for deletion.
Otherwise to be moved to the Networking board - torsocks is certainly not supposed to break wget.
