Recently I came using Ubuntu on my Notebook normally, and out of nowhere I could not access anything else in Firefox, nor check for updates. Could someone help me? I am running Ubuntu 17.10 on a Dell Inspiron 5558! Screenshot from the WiFi icon

BTW, there is the output of ip link and ip route:

gabriel@INSPIRON-5558:~$ ip link 
1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000

I managed to fix the error, was basically install resolvconf again and restart the computer. That means this problem has been solved!

How I did this:

  1. Downloaded the .deb file of resolvconf. Link: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/r/resolvconf/resolvconf_1.79ubuntu8_all.deb
  2. Installed the .deb file of resolvconf on terminal. Command: dpkg -i <file location>
  3. Started resolvconf with systemctl. Command: systemctl start resolvconf
  4. Rebooted the computer.
  5. WiFi is back!
