[Solved][Network] Connected to wifi with an IP address but no internet

Hi everyone!

I'm having a little problem for the last 2 days. As usual, I am connected to my wifi and have an IP address. However, I can't browse on internet, all pages are loading forever. I booted on Windows and it's perfectly working. Same for other devices connected to the wifi. Usually, I use NetworkManager, so I tried to switch to netctl but same problem, connected with an IP address but can't browse online.

Sorry for the poor quality but below's an image with the result of the ifconfig command.

Thanks!

Is the screenshot with ifconfig from windows ?
It indicates your DNS servers are 89.2.0.1 and 89.2.0.2 , try pinging them.

Also post the contents of /etc/resolv.conf .

Disliking systemd intensely, but not satisfied with alternatives so focusing on taming systemd.

clean chroot building not flexible enough ?
Try clean chroot manager by graysky

No it's from my Arch linux.

The content of /etct/resolv.conf is:

nameserver 103.86.99.99
nameserver 103.86.99.96

I think it's the NordVPN DNS I was trying to configure a few days ago. I should try to put back to 89.2.0.1

Solved!

When I was following the NordVPN tutorial, I activated the killswitch, which blocks internet conection if I'm not connected to my VPN. So I needed to connect to my VPN to get access to internet.

Thanks for your time!
