Hi everyone, so I’m having this weird issue. No matter the DNS and IP settings I use in NetworkManager, it will always generate the same resolv.conf.

resolv.conf

# Generated by NetworkManager
nameserver ::1

IPv6 is disabled by the way.

    If you’re getting DHCP, it could also be the DHCP server that’s giving you this address. In a standard house you’ll not set a specific IP address, but your router will give you one, and normally your home computers will also use your router for DNS. So potentially your router is setting this, but that’d be a misconfigured router really, because your router shouldn’t be telling your computer to look at local loopback for DNS requests.
