I'm running Ubuntu Server 16.04 (32 bit) on an old dell dimension 4600 desktop tower PC. Whilst connected to Ethernet, I am able to ping the router and all other devices on my network. I am not able to ping public world wide websites (ex. Google.com). I booted into another Linux desktop distro and verified that I am able to connect to sites there, just not on the server
im p new to linux - if there is any more information required i'll update the thread. Thanks!
