Hi,
A few weeks ago I had to do a complete reinstall of Debian Bookworm from a Debian Bookworm 12.5 Live ISO/DVD. Since then the laptop has not been able to access the web through the dongle (a Vodafone R219h) although the laptop can access the web through the local library access point. It seems that the laptop is using Network Manager to manage connections.I have read/worked through the Network Manager section of Debian Networking WiFi_HowToUse section of the Debian Wiki. The laptop still cannot access the web through the dongle.
In my investigations I found that both 20-wired.network and dhcp.network were both missing from /etc/systemd/network. I have re-instated both files. This has made no difference. There is a .nmconnection file for the dongle in /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/. In System Settings/Network/Connections I have tried changing the dongle (access) Mode from Infrastructure (the original setting) to Adhoc and then Access Point. Neither of these changes made any difference.
Currently I have set Restrict to device to wlp7s0. Again this made no difference.
Previous to re-installing Debian, the laptop had no problem whatever in accessing the web through the dongle at home.
Could someone please point me in the direction of a fix for this problem ?
