        @cagiraudo in a ssh session, what is the output of cat /etc/resolv.conf now?
        If the content of the file is the same as before then the changes have not been saved. Do it again and pay attention to any posible errors that appear when you save. Otherwise in the last command of wiki instruction, the one u blockquoted, change eth0 by wlan0 or even better restart your recalbox.

            Indeed, thanks for your time and complete answers

            cat /etc/resolv.conf
            nameserver 208.67.222.222
            nameserver 208.67.220.220

            I tried with ifdown wlan0 && ifup wlan0. Even restarting the raspberry, but still says "NOT CONNECTED"

                @Substring Thanks! 😄

                @cagiraudo Try ping google.com in shh, Is there an answer?, if so, try to undo what u mentioned here:

                I did research a lot and tried the solution of changing the ping website to archive.recalbox.com like you describe here: https://forum.recalbox.com/topic/5039/can-t-connect/41

                I think this solution don't work now i think is a old tip for a temporary issue.

                If there is no answer from google to previous ping, i think i give up, something else fails on your system in addition to the DNS resolution but I can not think what.

                  No, no response when i ping google.com. Maybe there is something strange with my network, i will keep trying.

                  Thanks anyway

                    there is something strange, i found out i can't ping with any device connected in my network, i can browse internet without problem, but anytime i try to ping some site i don't get answers, i tried with notebook, cellphone, recalbox, etc.

                    I know this is beyond recalbox, but do you have any idea what could be happening??

                    Thanks

                      @cagiraudo Speculation: something related to ICMP protocol at router / firewall or even ISP level.

                        Just an upgrade, my ISP was blocking my ICMP packets.

                        I solved that issue and now the recalbox connects to internet without any problem 😄

                        Thank you @Pepe for the help
