Configure DNS

The new ARMtix installations had no internet.
I had DNS not working.
I could ping 1.1.1.1 but not artixlinux.org.

I installed openresolv and it works.

To share internet (wifi and usb hotspot) I need also dnsmasq.
Otherwise problems at configuring ip.

No dhcp, NetworkManager has a small built-in dhcp that it is used by default.

What do you use usually?

On another installation no dnsmasq, no openresolv and no dhcp and it works.

NetworkManager can manage /etc/resolv.conf even without openresolv. Just make sure that this file isn't a symlink to something nonexistent.

Also, how to you connect to the internet physically? Via wi-fi or ethernet, or somehow else? Are your network interfaces up, is necessary firmware installed?

Long story short, what is the output of ip addr show on your ARMtix system?

Moreover, if you wanna turn your system into a wifi hotspot, it's another story. You need a router configuration then, and you'll not only need a DN server, but also a DHCP server, a working configuration of iptables/nftables for IP forwarding etc.

I do not think that it was a broken symlink I opened it fine.

Yes interface was up and drivers are fine I could ping 1.1.1.1 for example.
nmcli showed the connection up and active.

It's a modem: wwan0.

Now it works is the output still relevant?
I can delete openresolv, dnsmasq and get the log.
