Hi,

yesterday afternoon, after working all day at office without any
(network) problem, I decided to reboot my machine. Suddenly I could not
navigate on the web. But I could ping the gateway, I could resolve
names... just cannot reach the network (most commands just issued the
classic "network is unreachable" message).

thinking it was a route problem, I issued "ip route" on the terminal
and got this default route:

default dev eno1 scope link src 169.254.30.62 metric 202

I deleted it and add the good one:

ip route add default via 192.168.1.113 dev eno1

and I could navigate again immediately. Nevertheless, after every
reboot the wrong default route is there again. I couldn't find any file
or directory in which this could be configured, nor I found a command
that could create somehow implicitly such a default route.

How can prevent it to come back after reboot? I could add some kind of
/etc/rc.local or a systemd target to remove the wrong one and add the
right one at every boot, but i would prefer to understand why it
happens. At least, since a 169.254 route is always on, I wish to
undestand why it becomes the default one, preventing me from reach the
internet.

Please note that I only use Network Manager from the Gnome GUI with a
static address, and I didn't modify the configuration in several
months. Never touched /etc/network* dirs and files, nor
/etc/systemd/network.

Any hint will be much appreciated.

Best regards.
