When ever we enable Gufw v24.04.0 Firewall App and Keep The By Default most Normal Settings (Just enabling the Firewall app, No Alterations in Default Settings) , we noticed till 1 or 2 hours of system goes normal with fantastic Internet Connectivity via Wifi connected with Wireless Router. But after that all of sudden Laptop’s Wifi connection with the WIfi ADSL Hotspot
gets disturbed showing the “Limited Connectivity” Notification Message as System Pop-Up about the Internet connection. Temporary Solution what we could discover is that to Disconnect the wifi adaptor from Router and then sometimes Disable and Enable the wifi adaptor from the Manjaro OS right side bottom corner.
Can any Specialist or Expert Suggest how to Resolve this Problem Permanently ? -Thanx a Million in Advnce. Luv from Kolkata
That is triggered by a periodic check ping to a (manjaro owned) server.
I’d have to look up where that server is defined.
It could be changed to another server - and the message could be triggered by this server not being reachable temporarily.
The message alone is only an indication of that.
All the other connectivity might still be there.
It would be a different story if other connections where affected - beyond just this message showing up.

Should be something else. The manjaro ping is outgoing connection that is allowed. I also have the firewall on with the default settings and do not have this problem.

Does it actually affect your network?
ping -c4 8.8.8.8 # google's DNS server
ping -c4 www.google.com
If you get packets back from both commands then you should have internet.
If so then it’s probably a false negative from the connectivity check @Nachlese was talking about, you can disable it, it’s pretty much useless anyway.
# an empty file works, one of 4 ways to do this
sudo touch /etc/NetworkManager/conf.d/20-connectivity.conf
You could try disabling it to test, if you want to re-enable it then just delete the file.
sudo rm /etc/NetworkManager/conf.d/20-connectivity.conf
You may have to disable and re-enable networking, or restart/reload Network Manager…it’s been a while so I’ve forgotten.
/usr/lib/NetworkManager/conf.d/20-connectivity.conf
# override it in
/etc/NetworkManager/conf.d/20-connectivity.conf
Indeed, but AFAIK there is no other check/test. So the question remains, what’s causing it to fail?
