DHCP usually provides three things:
- IP Address (+ subnet mask)
- Defaulft gateway IP
- DNS servers
In the DHCP lease you for example get the IP 192.168.10.42/24. That IP is assigned to your interface which creates a implizit route like
192.168.10.0/24 dev netinterface. Now you know how to reach other hosts in your local network.In the same DHCP lease, you should also receive a default gateway - likely 192.168.10.1. this would add a route like
default via 192.168.10.1.Without the default route, packets for IPs other than your local network never leave your host because it doesn’t know where to send them to.
DNS servers are also provided, though before troubleshooting that, I would just ping addresses like 8.8.8.8 (google dns) for testing connectivity.

If that’s the only route then your issue starts there. If you want to reach anything other than the local network there needs to be a default route to the gateway.
The default route is sent along the dhcp lease so my suspicion is that the issue is in the dhcp server config.
