- Internet not working (Showing ethernet logo):
- Problem:
- The Internet is not working, but the default server of the router or modem is working and showing the ethernet logo.
- A common issue that is related to the problem:
- Using a VPN e.g.: Proton VPN and disconnecting from the native system option or removing the VPN information from the default settings app which causes an error.
- Solution:
- 1) Open the terminal app
- 2) Type the network manager command line commands "nmcli connection show" and press enter button
- 3) It will present the connection names with UUID, types, and device
- e.g.:
- NAME UUID TYPE DEVICE
- Consistent c04b967a-91b2-4714-845f-5eabb20fe843 wifi wlp18s0f0u5

- 4) Just check how many connections are real and how many are dummies and VPNs are listed in green color with the help of TYPE section
- e.g.:
- pvpn-ipv6leak-protection 9fa124f1-ebd0-4e44-8387-6343884d2a31 dummy ipv6leakintrf0
- 5) Copy and disconnect the dummy connections using this command
- nmcli con down id "CONNECTION_NAME"
- e.g.:
- nmcli con down id "pvpn-ipv6leak-protection"
- 6) Now open up the VPN application in my case the application is Proton VPN
- 7) Connect to the VPN and then disconnect the VPN
