Same here. Adding 8.8.8.8 in NetworkManager didn't work. Pinging websites didn't work, but pinging their IP did work. Weirdly, even when ping didn't work, it printed the IP.
As suggested here: https://askubuntu.com/questions/905543/ubuntu-17-04-weird-dns-issue I disabled DNSSEC. Now I can access the Internet. -- 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/1650927 Title: accessing local ethernet is possible, accessing internet is not possible (Ubuntu MATE 17.04, ppc) Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Access to local ethernet is possible (e.g. ping 192.168.2.2), access to internet is not possible: ping: ports.ubuntu.com: Name or service not known ping: www.google.com: Name or service not known It does not matter if my PowerBook G4 is connected via WLAN or ethernet, the effect is the same.
