I had this problem with 18.04. Adding an entry to /etc/hosts as mentioned in this bug report.

In 18.10, that does not work.

I get an IP assigned via DHCP, but never get the login page.

NetworkManager[1026]: <info>  [1541282194.0196] dhcp4 (wlp61s0):   address 172.31.98.25
NetworkManager[1026]: <info>  [1541282194.0196] dhcp4 (wlp61s0):   plen 23 (255.255.254.0)
NetworkManager[1026]: <info>  [1541282194.0196] dhcp4 (wlp61s0):   gateway 172.31.98.1
NetworkManager[1026]: <info>  [1541282194.0196] dhcp4 (wlp61s0):   lease time 3600
NetworkManager[1026]: <info>  [1541282194.0196] dhcp4 (wlp61s0):   hostname 'myhost'
NetworkManager[1026]: <info>  [1541282194.0196] dhcp4 (wlp61s0):   nameserver '8.8.8.8'
NetworkManager[1026]: <info>  [1541282194.0196] dhcp4 (wlp61s0):   nameserver '8.8.4.4'
NetworkManager[1026]: <info>  [1541282194.0196] dhcp4 (wlp61s0):   domain name 'home'

systemd-resolved[841]: Server returned error NXDOMAIN, mitigating potential DNS violation DVE-2018-0001, retrying transaction with reduced feature level UDP.

Searching for the error didn't turn up anything helpful.

My phone connects to the same wifi just fine.

Thanks.

  • Did you configure a DNS server rather than using the one automatically provided via DHCP? – Chai T. Rex Nov 04 '18 at 18:45
  • Yes, I configured DNS as outlined in Pauljohn32's post. That does not work.

    wlp61s0: flags=4163<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 inet 172.31.98.25 netmask 255.255.254.0 broadcast 172.31.99.255 inet6 fe80::d6ae:780f:6cea:513f prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x20 ether cc:3d:82:65:ca:8e txqueuelen 1000 (Ethernet) RX packets 9991507 bytes 8410479191 (8.4 GB) RX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 frame 0 TX packets 6825759 bytes 2632085081 (2.6 GB) TX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 carrier 0 collisions 0

  • This is a very unfriendly site. Can't edit comments. Sigh.

    Yes, I configured DNS as outlined in Pauljohn32's post. That does not work.

    It assigns an IP and sets the default route. I can't ping the router.

    I'd include details, but these site won't let me.

  • Sorry for the crappy formatting. There does not see to be any way for format comments. – Andrew Howell Nov 15 '18 at 22:11
  • Maybe I didn't wait long enough. I dissconnected and reconnected again. I could ping and resolve IPs, but could not access any web sites. Suddenly I got the splash page for starbucks. In summary, the changes I made were to edit the DNS server for "Google Starbucks" to manual configuration, using 8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4. Sorry for the noise, hopefully this will help someone else persevere to a solution :) – Andrew Howell Nov 15 '18 at 22:31
