I installed ubuntu 16.04
on a HP labtop. Right now, I can get access to wifi. For instance, ping 104.16.33.249
will return as
PING stackoverflow.com (104.16.33.249) 56(84) bytes of data
64 bytes from 104.16.33.249: icmp_seq=9 ttl=55 time=196 ms
However, when opening "stackoverflow.com" from firefox browser, the firefox returns as "server not found". Moreover, when trying to ping stackoverflow.com
, the return is ping: unknown host stackoverflow.com
. May I know how to solve it. After searching different forums, looks like I need to change the /etc/resolv.conf
This is the current output of this file,
# Dynamic resolv.conf(5) file for glibc resolver(3) generated by resolvconf(8)
# DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE BY HAND -- YOUR CHANGES WILL BE OVERWRITTEN
nameserver 8.8.8.8
nameserver 127.0.1.1
But it does not solve this problem either. Thank you for the help.
