  Ethernet doesn‘t work, because you have Google DNS configured. Wi-Fi would work if you had your IP address registered at the OpenDNS dashboard.

  Got it. I thought the WiFi wasn’t working because I was getting a privacy error. But after a google search it appears this is normal. Thanks for you quick response.
