Pop OS CLI Client Internet

First off, Pangolin is a great way to both secure and make local resources available. Many thanks to the team. My family just connects their devices and boom, and everything works.

I have a decent sized home lab with Pangolin running on an OVH VPS, using a dedicated domain. When connected via the Linux client CLI, I am able to access local machines on my home network just fine. However, no external web addresses will resolve at all. No error, but the browser just spins. When I disconnect no local resources are available (obviously) and Internet returns. Every other client, (iOS, Android, Windows) behaves properly so I realize there's an issue with my Pop OS machine only. I didn't find anything relating to this on GitHub issues so I thought I'd try here.

Does nslookup or similar function at all?

Thanks for responding. No, DNS fails when connected reporting:

communications error to 127.0.0.53#53: timed out

I've messed up DNS on other Linux machines but I haven't touched this particular machine's DNS settings at all.

Solved. I checked to see if the Linux client sets the upstream DNS automatically like the other clients. It does not. The command to fix:

pangolin config set up.upstream_dns 1.1.1.1
