Public bug reported: I just installed ubuntu 16.04 on a laptop, and after this, I had to install b43 firmware to get wifi working (as expected). When this was done - I could not see any available wireless networks in NetworkManager applet, so I had to install wicd-gtk - to be able to choose a wireless network and connect to it.
Now it connects fine - but nothing is shown in nm-applet my taskbar, and DNS isn't set correct (it seems it isn't set at all), when it gets a DHCP address. (dhcp and wifi works fine on my ubuntu 14.04 machines). I tried running nmcli dev show - and it does not show any DNS information at all. when I switch resolv.conf to use 8.8.8.8 as nameserver - dns works fine. It feels as if I'm missing something for network-manager, to make it properly handle wireless, and that wicd-gtk doesn't do the job exactly right ? ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1573420 Title: 16.04 beta: dns not set automaticly To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1573420/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
