Same here... Reinstalling resolvconf didn´t help either.

Same for ne. Tried the resolve daemon but issue remains. I'm up to date. Will continue to wait. Hope it is functional again soon. Will do a reinstall of Mobian when I absolutely need the connectivity.

A quick workaround is installing v1.34 of network-manager and libnm0 after every update (or just pin the packages) for if you need connectivity.

Wonderful, works like a charm so far. Thanks for the information.

How large is it to cache and update a DNS server locally?

I've also been having this problem since doing a fresh install from a weekly build a couple months back. 3G works so I haven't been too bothered by it but updating still hasn't fixed 4G. Would a fresh install from an even newer weekly build be the easiest way or is one of these workarounds still the only way? Otherwise I've been very impressed with the other improvements the Mobian team has been making. Thanks in advance for any help.

Just cache? Not too big. Easiest way is probably to flash OpenWrt on to your router, as it's built in there (among many other great features, and more standard Linux experience).

The OG WRT54G Linksys AP came out a year or two after y2k... 
But yea, there are several components that we need to bring into Mobian; at least optionally, probably any component we can bring over as a package for road warriors.
For me at least, my mobile phone and data plan IS my router at least 50% of the time when I do not have a trusted network connection WiFi or a network cable.
Ideally mobian would make it easy for a user to use customized DNS as DNS is an easy failure point where freedom and privacy can be attacked.

Hi,

I applied this method and it did work, thanks again for that. Now I'm beginning to wonder if I still need it. Is there some time in the future where I should be able to go back to a network configuration as shipped by debian?  Is this a fix for a problem introduced by using debian testing? I suppose I could just try it and find out, but has anyone else looked into this deeper. Does anyone know why this is needed and why it works? I'd be very interested to learn some of the details.

What is the output of "ip -6 route show"?  What carrier are you using?
