troubleshooting ”no internet”

Hello

Just had a funny issue – after disconnecting the vpn to my workplace I couldn’t browse the internet, although my LTE router worked fine.

So i went to CMD and issued the command: route print

Notice anything missing here? Like, something really necessary for your browser to work?

Of course, the default route… We need to add a default route to the internet via our next hop (my LTE router in this case).

Note that you need to run CMD in the admin mode for this to work. (Windows button, type cmd, right click on cmd.exe to see option Run as Administrator)

and off we go! Easy peasy lemon squeezy.
