Model: Archer C6  
Hardware Version: V2
Firmware Version: 1.1.7

My c6 router is not working on my laptop which has a ubuntu OS installed. Its working fine on other devices but on my laptop when I try to connect, it prompts for password and gets connected. But internet does not work. Even the wifi sign shows no internet access icon.

Make sure your wireless settings are:

What DNS servers you are using in C6 ?

What's the output of ' cat /etc/resolv.conf ' in Ubuntu console ?

Try pinging 1.1.1.1 and 8.8.8.8 from Ubuntu console.

If you receive ping responses then change the DNS in C6 Network->DHCP server to 1.1.1.1 and 8.8.8.8 reboot the C6 and test again.

@terziyski I changed the DHCP servers after seeing the success of the ping messages and it worked. Thank you.
