No connection to anything other than google sites over LAN, but a full connection over wifi- except!
This is for a telus wifi hub router/ modem combo. My wifi works, but my LAN doesn't. Wifi will load anything I want, but a wired connection will only load google services. I've tried with two laptop...
Have you played with any setting in the router? If so what? This was from yesterday, has it resolved itself?
What's the model # of the wifi hub router/ modem combo? what is the physical signal path/chain of your present equipment?
Reboot
Factory reset
Physical wiring changes
LAN DHCP static addressing, range setting
MAC address filtering allow/denial list
IP conflicts
etc
I do in fact mean ethernet. I've tried the same devices on both wifi and over ethernet. I've tried both wifi and ethernet on most of the devices (Don't have an adapter for the xbox.)

I've had this issue since I got telus internet in mid january. I've reset and factory restored it the router multiple times.
This is all my router info.
Present path is- ethernet line into the wall, and then a cable from the wall port to my PC. I've tried a few cables, and even plugging directly to the router.
I'll try adding my MAC to a whitelist and setting a static address.
The devices connected to the ethernet cables are definietly connected to the internet though- it's just that they can only go to default google sites.
If I'm reading this correctly you're getting "FULL" internet connectivity, but not LAN connectivity when using ethernet?
"No connection to anything other than google sites over LAN"
My issue with ethernet and internet connectivity got resolved:
I could see that LAN IP address negotiation is an issue, the PC could not establish a connection to the LAN when enabling it. It would state an "Unidentified Network"
I spoofed my MAC address of the PC's eth device/port - Didn't work
I changed my static IPv4 LAN IP back to Auto negotiate - Didn't work
I changed my static IPv4 LAN IP back to a IPv4 NEW IP address - Didn't work
Disabled all installed VPN virtual devices - Didn't work
Connected a second cat5e cable to the second PC eth device/port#2 and enabled - Didn't work
Can't spoof this second adapter's MAC address - NA
set the second adapter IPv4 IP to Auto - didn't work
Set the WiFi device to IPv4 IP auto, though it worked in static - Works both ways
Finally ethernet found a proper connection, with any IPv4 IP setup auto or static. At this point I'm still in the dark as to what causes it, what corrected it or what to do to prevent it from happening again.
I hope this helps you a bit with reconnecting your ethernet IPv4 IP/DNS issues.
Also an easy thing to do. Spoof your MAC address. But you did say ALL computers on ethernet can only get to Google services, and not surf the net? What do you mean google services, and not actually surf any internet? That definitely sounds like DNS issues. Try creating a new DNS with your IPv4 properties. I use a lot, 1.1.1.1 / 1.0.0.1 or 8.8.8.8 / .... or if you are already using your own selection try going back to default and use Telus' DNS services.
