I am facing a confusing problem. while using my home Wifi on ubuntu 14.04 amd64, my internet connection suddenly gives no response but in notification area it is shown as connected.
I switched my wifi on and off, it connects to my device but still no response.
My gateway is 192.168.1.1
, my mask is 255.255.255.0
, my IP is 192.168.1.38
but when i ping the gateway no result comes back.
I restarted couple of times, same problem.
Then I restarted and boot into my fedora 20 x86_64, same problem.
Then I restarted and boot into Windows, no problem there. everything works.
Then I restarted and boot into ubuntu again, the problem is fixed!!!!
This has happend to me so many times at home.
Can anyone tell me what is going on? What extra information i should search about?
Edit: I started downloading something and it happened again.
here is my ifconfig -a
:

and here is my route -n

I also checked these commands after and before mysterious disconnection, i think results are the same.
Edit: I also stopped ufw
and iptables
services and then,
here is my iptables -L -n -v

when the problem occurs and when all is working ok. I still have problems with my wireless router where at times I have to set the routes statically. – Rmano Sep 04 '14 at 19:54lspci -vvnn | grep -i wireless -A 10
should give us plenty of info to work with. – wxl Sep 08 '14 at 03:47
