I can ping my university servers only, from my terminal(i.e I can ping only university server from my terminal).

  • "I can ping my university servers only from my terminal. I can't ping 8.8.8.8/8.8.4.4 etc" this sounds like a problem with your university's network or usage policies – steeldriver Feb 16 '19 at 15:33
  • No, I don't think so. I can't install/update from my apt package manager. And I think my laptop is in deadlock(can't avail the resources). – DexLost Feb 16 '19 at 17:52
  • Anyone is there? Isn't this question appearing in askubuntu page? Please help, I am stuck here since a week. – DexLost Feb 23 '19 at 12:02
