Hi Jason,
how did you configure your Ethernet card - with Network Manager or?
Please provide configuration.
The above errors means that your system is configured to use DNS
server on localhost (IPv6 - ::1) and connection was refused. So this
is first thing to check - your DNS configuration. You have the
following choices:
- install DNS server on your local computer (BIND for example)
- you can use DNS on your router
- you can use DNS provided by your ISP.
Kind regards

Hi Georgi,
I am using Network Manager without any input/manual configuration,
running under
the assumption it would 'just work'. This also means I am using WPA
supplicant
Since my home network needs no special configuration, I had assumed my
router or
ISP would act as DNS. Why would DNS on IPv4 work under this
configuration but
not IPv6?
It's hard to provide configuration when I'm not sure what I'm looking
for. I
installed a bare netinst installation, accidentally with GNOME, but then
removed
it and installed sway and i3 in its place. I haven't touched any
configuration
text files and have no GUI for it either. /etc/network contains just
some shell
files, nothing in /etc/network/interfaces.d:
/etc/network$ ls -R
if-down.d if-post-down.d if-pre-up.d if-up.d interfaces interfaces.d
./if-down.d:
resolved wpasupplicant
./if-post-down.d:
wpasupplicant
./if-pre-up.d:
wpasupplicant
./if-up.d:
resolved wpasupplicant
./interfaces.d:
I've never needed to change this state of affairs i.e. autoconfiguration
as much
as possible, until recently when issues started cropping up.
Aware I was using NetworkManager, I tried configuring it by starting
nm-applet
and adding a configuration with nm-connection-editor.
I added a DNS server for IPv6, OpenDNS' ipv6 address. I then looked under
into NetworkManager's configuration directory for the connection info:
/etc/NetworkManager/system-connections$ sudo cat 'Wired connection 1'
[connection]
