[SOLVED] Yosemite WiFi works, but no internet. nslookup works, ping fails.
Solution:
- Reboot
- Done.
More info:
As my problems seemed to be related to DNS found out that mDNSResponder was now obsolete and discoveryd had replaced it. Simply writing
fixed the internet, but only until the next boot.
To my surprise I found /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.mDNSResponder.plist
and com.apple.mDNSResponderHelper.plist still there.
Renaming them (or deleting them, I would assume) fixes the problem permanently.

Hi,
I've had mavericks working 100% (except iMessage stopped working after a while)
But after I upgraded to Yosemite (refering to tony's guide) everything works except one thing - the internet.
Don't get me wrong, the wifi works and connects to my networks (which do work on other devices).
I can even nslookup with success, but ping returns "ping: cannot resolve google.com: Unknown host".
I am able to access the router as well. It's simply "everything" else that's not working.
I have googled for days after DNS related issues and tried resetting DNS cache and more.
Any ideas?
Thank you
Regards
- Fred
