Connected to Wi-Fi, Firefox cannot load pages, only some downloads though apt-get are working (lemm.ee)

I installed Linux mint on my Lenovo X131e and installing updates has been problematic. Initially I thought only Firefox was not “getting internet” but looking at the apt-get messages it appears even that is having issues.

I have never been much a Linux user since the mid90s. But have used it off and on.

I am going to be using this in my game shop to display stuff on my monitors around the shop, mostly event codes and event standings for Magic the gathering (this uses a webpage from wizards). And to play music.

Ping is not working, I cannot even ping the router. All of my other devices have internet. I am thinking it is either my T-Mobile business internet, or the old laptop not working well with 5ghz.

However, when I did a live usb boot it was working okay.
