If Steam opens before network is fully working, the web-based interfaces show an error. The workaround is to close and open Steam again.

Steps for reproducing this issue:

  1. Disable wired network
  2. Open Steam and wait for splash screen showing awaiting network
  3. Enable wired network
  4. Steam will open as expected but every web-based interface (Store, Community, etc.) will be unavailable.

Hello @rokam, this reads like #10550, please give that issue report a read and check if this is more of a systemd-resolved / resolv.conf issue than a Steam client issue.

Thanks, the following command fixed the issue:

sudo ln -sf /run/systemd/resolve/stub-resolv.conf /etc/resolv.conf
