On startup of my laptop, all wifi networks are detected, my laptop connects to the wifi, but I don’t have internet and get wifi with a question mark icon.
Upon running the following command I have immediately an internet connection:
resolvectl --no-pager status
Does anybody have a clue what is going on, and how to resolve it?
I am running Fedora Linux 40 (Workstation Edition)
firmware Version 2.29
DNS4, DNS6 : Automatic
Edit: updated to fedora 41, and the issue seems to be resolved for now
threaded - newest
use journalctl -f to show you what’s happening as you try to connect and look for errors/failure/disconnects/etc.
I also typed those in a separate command window

journalctl -u ${service-unit-name}and set deeper debugging level with sudo.so i think that a list of the relevant service units will be decent place to start and the no-brainers from your copy/paste are audit, kernel, and systemd-${whatever} service units and we need to figure out what else we need to add to that list: maybe gnome-shell since you’ve mentioned nmcli? are you using fedora’s default ndiswrapper and what is it?
Do you have a custom DNS set up on your Fedora machine or the router by chance?
No, The DNS is set to automatic. And: ipv4 and ipv6 are set to automatic (DHCP), and automatic respectively.
Then I’m afraid I can’t help. I only have such an issue if the DNS is experiencing a downtime or I don’t pay my bills in time.
Does
Work ? If yes then could be DNS problem.
It does work, but changing DNS doesn’t solve the issue unfortunately
I had one laptop doing this, the work around was disabling ipv6
