Thanks for the detailed reply.

I used the installer defaults to configure the network interface.

Here are the contents of /etc/network/interfaces:

# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system
# and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5).

source /etc/network/interfaces.d/*

# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

and /etc/networks/interfaces.d is empty.

It would seem that there is another problem:  dpkg --add-architecture 
i386 (as root) no longer seems to work, although it did when I ran it 
yesterday after reinstalling the OS.

However I just ran

sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6=1, as per your suggestion and got:


root@AbNormal:/home/comp# sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6=1
net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6 = 1
