Wired connection fails due Camput Network?
Hello guys,
So I have been through all the Threads, Questions here and checked all the possible answers to find a solution for me. I wont post my snippets here, just some take-out: - If i set DHCP Auto I cannot ping to my router nor outside - If i set Manually IP, I can ping my router but not outside (so no google.com nor 8.8.8.8, etc.) - My Ethernet Card is detected (ifconfig) and drivers recognized / installed (lspci -v) (possible issue because it is R8169?)
I have tried to play around with NetworkManager, restarting, unplugging the cable, etc. Nothing worked. This happened on: ArchLinux, Kali Linux and now on Fedora linux.
Once I got it working on Kali Linux but rather randomly than with strategy, but after reboot it did not work anymore there too.
I won't ask for your ideas on how to solve this one, because I will probably just delete and give up on Linux here, but I would like to ask, is this a common problem on Campus Networks ? Is it possible that they do not allow / support Linux OS for Networking ?
EDIT: Since you guys are really nice with help, I will also put some effort to this question, maybe we can find solution.
LINUX OS: Fedora 22
Dual-boot: Yes - with Windows 7 Ultimate (here the Internet works fine)

Thanks.
Campuses are commonly behind proxy. Were proxy settings applied?
@NuuN: Thanks for replying.As far as I am aware, we do not use Proxy at our Campus / Students Dorms. I checked with What is my IP website and it says "No Proxy detected".
When you have the connection "up and running" using DHCP, go to the IPv4 Settings tab on your connection and let us know what your IP address and Gateway are. FYI, your Gateway should be your router's IP address.
@sideburns: Thanks for helping. My connections is "connected" only when I manually insert the IP, Netmask, DNS, Gateway inside the Network Manager app, when I click on Edit eth0. If I do not give this inputs, it won't even connect. And as said, even though it connects now, the internet is not really working - ping only works locally (router), but cannot ping google or 8.8.8.8
Question what version of Fedora are you running?
