Re: [PLUG] WiFi issues on Ubuntu after installing Nordvpn

[H Mottaleb via plug <plug@lists.phillylinux.org>]

Hi Mike,

I’m getting an error now during startup.

It says, failed to start dispatcher demon for systemd networkd 

Right below that it says (3 of 4) A start job is running for accounts service.

Then it says, failed to start network name resolution

Failed to start accounts service

Stopped Snap Demon and it’s doing something else for last 10 minutes.

Not sure what’s going on here but it seems like there is an issue with the network service?

I hope there is no virus on the system. What would you recommend as far as virus scanner goes?

Thank you,

Humera

Try running tail -f /var/log/syslog and connecting to the vpn.  You can post the output here if you want.  

Thanks,

Hello!

I have a situation started with losing wi-Fi connection intermittently after I installed Nord VPN on my Ubuntu system about a month ago. Since yesterday it has gotten worse now the system is also locking up when I run some commands like ifconfig or even just a system shutdown. I have to manually turn off the system by pressing on the power button.

Once the laptop turns back on, it all functions properly (at least for a few minutes as that’s all I have tried) until I login to Nord VPN.

I updated Ubuntu this morning and tried a different server as well for NordVPN, but that hasn’t helped.

I’m not running any hefty programs on this machine. Just accessing the Internet. I have a Dell precision M6800 with 16 GB of ram.

I would appreciate it if someone can tell me what to do next.

Best,

Humera
