I am having a very similar problem on a Dell Inspiron desktop computer. Had few connectivity issues with Ubuntu 16.10. Upgraded to 17.04, and connectivity has been an almost constant problem. When the computer is connecting to my Wifi, the speeds are extremely slow (sometimes 1-60 MB/s), and I have to reboot the computer, disconnect then reconnect the WiFi, etc. I have also noticed that I now have a perpetual "virbr0" that will not shut off, or allow itself to be deleted when editing the Network Connections. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to network-manager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1679535 Title: ! Cannot connect to internet in Ubuntu 17.04 (DNS Lookup fails) Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Hello, I think this is a bug in the WIFI-driver or kernel. Ubuntu is connected to the WIFI (router) box, but it cannot find DNS server to get to the internet. I have periodically *serious* problems with WIFI in Ubuntu 17.04. The network icon shows "connected" to the router and internet, but browsers and other attempts to get data report DNS error / or not connected. This happens in all flavours of Ubuntu 17.04 (Ubuntu, Ubuntu GNOME etc.). Same laptop with Ubuntu 16.10 works flawlessly. The connection works fine after I reboot (power off/on) the router box. Then the bug may return (or may not return) after I turn on my laptop next time. This laptop is Toshiba Stellite P50 C. The laptop has Intel Corporation Wireless 3165 (rev 81). $ lspci -nnk | grep -iA2 net; uname -r; ls /lib/firmware/ | grep 'iwlwifi-7265d' 0d:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Intel Corporation Wireless 3165 [8086:3165] (rev 81) Subsystem: Intel Corporation Dual Band Wireless AC 3165 [8086:4010] Kernel driver in use: iwlwifi -- 0e:00.0 Ethernet controller [0200]: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd.
