DNS on Linux stopped working without Air

[Biggsboy 0]

Hello, I'm currently running Ubuntu Mate 22.04 and using the Eddie client for Air.

Eddie works great on its own, but its seems that my DNS does not work unless I'm connected to the VPN. I've done the normal troubleshooting steps: ran updates, restarted computer, restarted NetworkManager, and tried setting the DNS server to 8.8.8.8 using nmtui. Nothing seems to resolve it and I've tried this on two networks (so it's not just my home network causing the issue).

I previously noticed this happening but a restart or two of my machine fixed it; now it seems permanent. Any advice would be greatly appreciated, i'm still fairly new to Linux!

Here it is, thanks!

Eddie version: 2.21.8

Let's update Eddie first to the current stable, which is 2.24.6. 
 

Detected DNS: 10.128.0.1, fd7d:76ee:e68f:a993::1

Also, connect, then disconnect. We're troubleshooting DNS not being reset to the original setting after disconnection; it's expected that AirDNS is still set when you're connected.
