I can confirm that this was the problem. After I successfully installed using an ISO as the repository, I still had no access to the internet. I changed the settings in the router to use my ISP's DNS servers instead of the custom DNS servers I had been using, and everything started working. I had tried changing settings for systemd-resolved, but nothing I did allowed it to do name resolution. NetworkManager had successfully set up the network, and if I used numerical IP addresses, I could access the web. I am unfamiliar with systemd-resolved and it was probably my lack of knowledge that led to my failure. But from everything I could see, it should have been working. It showed that it knew about the DNS servers, but couldn't use them for some reason. This is going to be a rare problem, because there are probably few people who aren't using the DNS servers that their ISP provides. _______________________________________________ test mailing list -- test@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to test-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/test@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure
