Hello

Thank you for posting in Q&A forum.

To ensure your WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux) has internet access, you can follow these steps:

1. Check Network Configuration:

• Open your WSL terminal and run the following command to check your network configuration:

ip addr show

• Ensure that your WSL instance has an IP address assigned. If not, you may need to restart your WSL instance or your computer.

2. Restart WSL:

• Close your WSL terminal and restart WSL by running the following command in PowerShell:

wsl --shutdown

• Then, reopen your WSL terminal.

3. Check Internet Connectivity:

• Test your internet connection by running a command like ping: bash ping google.com

4. Check your Windows firewall settings or network adapter configurations:
