Get internet if boot into safe mode. turn off computer, turn on while holding left shift button. Should see Safe mode in red in upper right corner. log on with you password open browser & should work. left apple chat with reinstalling 10.15.1 and wasted another 35 minutes getting nothing on internet either thru ethernet or wifi. I will pick up with them in the morning as it is too late to deal with it. Apple's faulty os releases makes me think they are trying to mirror microsoft. This didn't happen in the past & is what made apple. SMH

It doesn't work in safe mode on my computer. After a reboot it works briefly. Almost like a memory buffer, or cache is filling up and not clearing. Once full all incoming data stops. I tried safe boot, disconnecting all my perpetuals The results are all the same. I brief connection followed by a slowdown of incoming data. Then everything stops. Its a real pain, but I could boot off my external HD, and reinstall 10.15 a process I really don't want to have to start. I'll wait until Apple has something to say.

The resolution to this issue has absolutely nothing to do with 3rd party software to blame. Its obvious we were all working 100% prior to the upgrade. The culprit here is captain obvious...the 10.15.1 upgrade. Don't waste your time removing apps etc.........this problem will kick up some serious dust as it affects one of the earths most important resources......the internet and access to it. Take internet away from any human and sh1ts gunna hit the fan. I bet Apple is already onto 10.15.2 in the next 24 hours.


Its a real pain in the *** though.

Hello, I have the same problem of not being able to connect to the internet after the update to 10.15.1. I have been using Intego's Virus Barrier & Net barrier for some time and Luis's comment may have some merit.

I turned off Net Barrier and can now connect to the internet. I turned it back on and can't connect to the internet. I contacted Intego and they are aware and working on a fix. So if you have Net Barrier just turn it off. Virus Barrier is still on. Hope this is of some help.
