If ping reports name or service not known I would guess that you have a problem with your dns service. Have you tried to ping an ip instead of "google.com"? You can find out the coresponding ip to an website by tools like



http://www.hcidata.info/host2ip.cgi

  • So this strongly suggests that your DNS is not answering. The DNS configuration is stored at "/etc/resolv.conf" you could execute “nameserver 8.8.8.8” >> /etc/resolv.conf which will append the current configuration with the google public DNS. (You could choose any DNS server but I would recommend this for testing purposes). To further diagnoe what went wrong before executing the command.

Check the output of ip link. See if the interface is down. If so, you can run ip link set INTERFACE up and try again. Try using nmtui and see what it says when you try to activate a network with it. If no networks show up, then that means the interface is down. If it errors there is another problem.



According to your picture, you are on a network, so hopefully these aren’t the problem. Try connecting elsewhere in case it is not the computer, or try something other than ping and see what happens.
