I'm running a headless server on ODROID-C1 with Ubuntu 18.04. I connected to Wifi with wpa_supplicant and iwconfig shows the correct SSID association, but on startup it does not work - ping google.com returns Temporary failure in name resolution, and ping 192.168.1.1 (the router IP) returns connect: Network is unreachable.

To get the internet to work, I have to run dhclient -4 to fix it, and after a while it breaks again?

This happens with Ethernet and Wifi connections.

What is going wrong? What should I do to fix it permanently? (I don't want to have to run this command blind every time it is started)

Any help is appreciated.

    Ubuntu 18.04 uses netplan to configure networking. Please edit your question to show the result of the terminal command: cat /etc/netplan/*.yaml Welcome to Ask Ubuntu. – chili555 Aug 05 '20 at 21:45

    @BrianZ It might work in the short term, but as I said the internet breaks eventually after running the command so I'm not sure if it'll work. – Liftyee Aug 06 '20 at 15:55
  • @chili555 cat /etc/netplan/*.yaml returns No such file or directory, it doesn't exist for some reason – Liftyee Aug 08 '20 at 13:58
  • How about: ls /etc/netplan and also: sudo dpkg -s netplan.io | grep Status – chili555 Aug 08 '20 at 14:47
