Ubuntu and surfing...

[Ieledtov]

Good morning everyone.

I installed Ubuntu with gnome, firefox and i am using router with dhcp fot
internet.

From the shell i can ping websites, but if i try to open a website through
firefox it says "Page contains no data".

What can be the problem?

Thank you in advance.

first try if you got a "lease" from your router
sudo ifconfig -a

next check your firefox connection settings (proxy?...)

tell us more if this does not help

Disable ipv6 in Firefox. Type in about:config in the address bar, scroll
down to Networking and disable ipv6.
