Description of problem: Closed laptop, traveled 48 miles to another location where I've used the wireless AP for years. However, upon connecting to that local router, no traffic would pass... # route -n Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 0.0.0.0 192.168.1.254 0.0.0.0 UG 35 0 0 wlp8s0 169.254.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 U 35 0 0 wlp8s0 192.168.1.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 35 0 0 wlp8s0 192.168.56.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 vboxnet0 ### Wrong default gateway... that's the address of the default gateway which I left just over an hour ago, and where bug 12398 occurs... # route del default # route add default gw 192.168.1.1 Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.

(see also bug 12398 comment 4) In this bug (12420), the network does not have to be deleted, nor re-created; but it appears the default gateway does not get set correctly in this case.
While working on a minor network issue, discovered why my network seemed slower than usual... In addition to setting the wrong gateway, the primary DNS server was also incorrectly set in /etc/resolv.conf.... even after carrying this laptop back and forth between home and office which both use "nameserver 192.168.1.1" It's been a few weeks since it's been to the remote location where the gateway is 192.168.1.254; but regardless of connecting to home and office, /etc/resolv.conf was not updated...
