You can note your issue below here
My second computer, a Sony VAIO Tap 20 SVJ20215CB "sees" and connects to our Wi-Fi network, but it doesn't actually have Internet connectivity. No other device in our household, including other Linux-based laptops, have this issue. This particular computer also has perfect connectivity (i.e. no issues) when connected ti my modem / router by ethernet.
I thought it was something related to the modem / router I was previously using, but I just changed to Starlink and it is the same issue with the new modem / router. Again, no other device in the household, including other Linux-based laptops, have issues, suggesting the problem is unique to this computer.
Obviously I can leave it connected by ethernet, and that is my "Plan B", but it would not be ideal.
Any ideas?
