From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

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

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.
