I really don't trust GUI interfaces in Debian. sometime they trick us.
I have called couple of times Customer Care people and they don't know how to troubleshoot the issue of connectivity particularly for Debian.
I assume you have dynamic ip.
As usual, I did some research and found a solution.
You need exactly two packages and a little patience.
The two packages are :
[1] dhcp3-client
[2] dhcp3-common
When you don't have an internet connection, follow the following steps :
Step 1 :
# dhclient -rthe above command will release your ip. sometimes it shows some errors. don't bother about them. give the command atleast more than 2 times.
Step 2 :
# dhclient
the above command will try to provide an ip address.
If you follow the above two steps your internet connectivity will be again online.
The End.
