[Solved] Brave and Google Chrome won't connect to internet

Brave and Google Chrome won't connect to internet and can't open any website. I don't have this problem with Firefox. I tried using new profiles also disabled firewall but it didn't help.

Re: [Solved] Brave and Google Chrome won't connect to internet

systemd-resolved is not properly integrated as a DNS management for NetworkManager.

Delete "/etc/resolv.conf".
Replace it with a link to systemd-resolved's stub file:

ln -sf /run/systemd/resolve/stub-resolv.conf /etc/resolv.conf

Additionally you can reconfigure NetworkManager:

# /etc/NetworkManager/conf.d/dns.conf

[main]
dns=systemd-resolved

Restart NetworkManager.

Check the outputs from seth's commands again.

Re: [Solved] Brave and Google Chrome won't connect to internet

systemd-resolved service was disabled. I enabled it and rebooted and that fixed the problem.

\o/
Please always remember to mark resolved threads by editing your initial posts subject - so others will know that there's no task left, but maybe a solution to find.
Thanks.

Ftr, resolvectl responding means that resolved was running; the foreign mode should™ work but the stub mode is recommended - though just from what you posted it doesn't make a hell lot of sense that chromium could not resolve DNS
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
