This is an ongoing problem and mystery. My network is connected. System settings tell me so and so does the drop downs under my network icons on the top bar. When this happens I open a terminal and try to ping yahoo.com (or any other known place). What happens is, exactly, nothing! all I see is my command and nothing else. My solution is to stop/disconnect the network and then bring it back up. I have absolutely no idea why my machine is behaving this way.
I am currently using a wireless connection but the same thing happens when I have a wired connection
I have also tried sudo service network-manager restart
Would appreciate any thoughts on this one as its driving my nuts.
Thank you..............
