Shared Network not working on CachyOS

Hello
I use the network sharing feature alot i share my wifi network over to Ethernet
it worked fine in other distros like linux mint and ubuntu but it is not working on cachyos for some reason which is a shame because this distro is awesome
whats funny is that it worked completely fine in the usb live environment but not when i installed the OS on my SSD

how i usually do it is just by simply a creating a “Wired Ethernet (shared)” connection type in the KDE network settings

i looked this up everywhere online and could not find a solution that worked so any help is appreciated
does this have anything to do with systemd-resolved and dnamasq? because both appear to be installed

Likely due to firewall. You can try sudo ufw disable to check if its the case.

nope same thing even after doing that

Even after a reboot?

yes bro :sob: it just seems completely broken on this distro i dont think the firewall is the issue in here cuz i used it on mint with firewall enabled and it worked flawlessly

You can try to disable systemd-resolved.

sudo rm /usr/lib/Networkmanager/conf.d/dns.conf
sudo systemctl disable --now systemd-resolved

i already tried that before dnsmasq fails to start checked the journalctl it says it failed because “failed to create listening socket for port 53: port already in use”
what is dnsmasq and systemd-resolved anyway? i mentioned them because i looked online and they are somehow related to network sharing and will that solve the issue? cuz im really new to linux

i also just tried another arch distro “endeavour” and network sharing worked fine over there too
i also reinstalled cachyos on another machine and same issue network sharing does not work really hope there is a solution because i really like cachy and this feature is really essential for me :pensive:
