My network icon is always a question mark but I have acces to internet

Solution 1:

  • Disable Network Connectivity Checking in Ubuntu:
  • Open Settings
  • Select Privacy
  • Turn ‘network connectivity checking’ off

Solution 2:

I had same issue. Googled for answer and found that if you edit /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf and insert the line

dns=default

to the [main] section and the question mark over the lan icon disappears.
