Any suggestions?

Maybe a DNS issue? Does web browsing work fine? Could try using google instead of your internet provider, forcing DNS to 8.8.8.8.

Thanks,

I can't download lynx or links to try cli web browsing. When installed and using the GUI firefox seems to work ok. Is there a host file that I could input google's DNS servers? What is this resolv.conf?


Assuming you can get to settings (running Gnome?) then just turn off the automatic settings for DNS and set it manually. 

8.8.8.8
and
8.8.4.4

Thanks,
Richard
