You have wg0, it means you have a wireguard configuration (VPN). And when pining the public ip it tries to use the wireguard gateway ( 10.8.0.3 ).

Did you ever configure manually a wireguard vpn?

Haha we commented the same at the same time!

@gpatel-fr I see, I just did a fresh install (haven't installed any apps), is there something I should try for fixing DNS before I reflash the phone with daily instead of stable release?

Thank you for all the answers.

Yes, I think I had wireguard installed at some point. But I didn't edit the configuration in a long time. Now I am not realy sure how/where I did the edits. I don't have any VPN or wireguard-specific app installed. And as meantined above the VPN-menu in the setings is empty. I am not sure if the wireguard-VPN was in use or even working before the update.

Where could I remove/deactivate the wireguard-config and go back to direct internet connection?

should you try to fix it or install daily ? I'd say that it's up to you; if the problem is generic to your install you may have it with daily too.

Dns servers are normally setup automatically by your configuration, for cellular network by the phone provider. If cellular data is not working normally, you won't have any dns server; however as you can access a site by IP address that should not be the case.

I did not check in your previous posts if you have wifi, a badly configured wifi network will precede the cellular configuration and may be the reason for your problems.
In the case of wifi, it's the wifi access point that usually gives an IP address and the connections details such as the Dns servers, but sometimes on local configurations things are more complex and conflicts can happen. If for example you have 2 dhcp servers on the same network, often bad things happen.

I have no experience at all with wireguard, on UT or elsewhere so an immediate reply on this will have to wait a bit until I reload my battery

Did you possibly at some point make your filesystem rewritable to do "apt install wireguard"?

If so the best might be to reinstall the system with the installer to make sure to have a fresh start.

(A durty version might be to make your filesystem writable and remove wireguard, not the most recommended solution )

I can't realy remember what I did to end up here but the following command solved the problem:

sudo nmcli c dwn wg0

With that command I was able to disable wireguard. I don't know why but for some reason that old wireguard profile got activated by the update. Now websites, emails and apps work again.

Thank you all very much.

nmcli man page says that this is not preventing the connection to come back later to haunt you

it says further:

 In most cases you may want to use device down command instead.

@gpatel-fr I am glad to say the SIM started working again: I rebooted without the SIM, and then with it again. I also recall the SIM was working the second time I booted UT for the first time ever on the phone (the first time I booted I'd forgotten to insert it). Hopefully it was just a temporary glitch and Fairphone 5 users running 24.04 stable are 'SIM-safe'.
