From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Ethernet plugged in but there is no internet. I have no idea what happened. I just took a normal update like I always do and after that it was all gone. WiFi connects no problem, but there is no internet. Unplugged Ethernet and replugged it back in. Nothing. I dualboot with windows, internet works fine there, so there is no hardware issue. Went into a live environment and chrooted into it and reinstalled network manager and still not a fucking thing. Not sure what these are now. I know about the lo one, but never seen the second wired connection or the virbr0. Any idea how to get my Internet back? I really don't want to reinstall the system because of this. And btw, I even tried a hotspot from my phone and a wire tether from it and still no internet.
System is endeavour OS with KDE on Wayland.

You only need one. Standard is to use your router IP as local nameserver.
If your internet provider has issues with name resolutions, which happens sometimes, you can instead set 8.8.8.8 (Google's nameserver) or 1.1.1.1 (Cloudflare's nameserver). But then you can't ping other devices in your local network by name, and loading websites can be a tiny bit slower.

Do I put the ipv4 address in there or the ipv4 default gateway? Because I see these two and they're not the same IP. Now, I have the ipv4 default gateway in resolv.conf

On a home internet with just one router provided by your internet provider, your router is the gateway and the local nameserver.
So you can put the ipv4 of the router in everywhere it asks for default gateway or nameserver.
