Weird issue with Wifi network

Hello,

I am using F39, and for a few weeks now, I am having issues with one specific Wifi network.

What happens is, that when connected to the network I am not able to access the internet.
If I turn on my VPN to that network (WireGuard VPN to a Fritz.Box), I can access the internet.
I do not understand this, because I should already be in the same network even without the VPN.

It also seems like DNS can be resolved, even when the VPN is not on.

This problem is really weird, and I hope someone can help me understand it better.

I appended outputs for some commands that might help. If you need further info I am happy to provide :slight_smile:

nslookup with VPN ON

nslookup google.com
Server:		127.0.0.53
Address:	127.0.0.53#53

Name:	google.com

nslookup with VPN OFF

nslookup google.com
Server:		127.0.0.53
Address:	127.0.0.53#53

Non-authoritative answer:
Name:	google.com
Address: 142.250.185.142
Name:	google.com
Address: 2a00:1450:4001:811::200e

It fixed itself after reimporting the VPN connection
