Hello, today I bought a new modem and as soon as I connected Kde tells me “limited connection” (Kde tells me that the internet doesn’t work but it actually works)
The interesting thing is that from the modem settings I assigned a static IP address to the device… and the problem was solved. So the problem is the dynamic IP address. How could I solve?
Hi, three devices are connected: Smartphone, Windows PC and Linux PC. With Smartphone and Windows I don’t get any similar message.
As for the static IP, the message is resolved by adding the Linux PC with the static IP. But it’s strange, with the old modem I didn’t have a static IP and the message wasn’t there
I had this happen on another distro with KDE for a bit. I can’t remember what caused it exactly, but it was solved with an network manager package update.

I’ll try waiting for the updates, the connection works so it’s not a big problem. In my case, however, I doubt it is a question of updates because if I put the old modem back, the problem doesn’t exist
I don’t think there are other devices connected to the same IP address, at least in the modem configuration they all seem to be connected to different IP addresses (photo)
I also have an access point, but it is set to 192.168.1.200
It’s possible it’s a DNS issue but I don’t know where to get my hands on the modem settings honestly
Well… as long as I don’t see any strangeness in the connection, the problem interests me relatively. It’s definitely annoying but if it’s a false alarm I can ignore it
I tried to start Kde Neon from live and the connection doesn’t give me the same problem… it’s really strange
