Welcome to the forums, before we can give any help, please give us more information,
have you installed parrot direct to your hard drive or in a VM
is your WI_FI built in or a USB dongle
I don’t use Aronsurf myself, but many do, and they may be able to help once we know what sort of installation.

If you are using a VM and a built-in wifi, then you cannot directly access the wi-fi from the VM, only via the bridge to the host OS. you will need a seperate USB wi-fi dongle

This probably has to do with Anonsurf removing(?) the dns file, a problem reported in this forum a number of times. I think the solution is

sudo systemctl restart NetworkManager.service

**While checking for solutions on youtube. I found that says edit the resolv.conf file adding
nameserver 8.8.8.8

Then when i checked my resolv.conf file it says the file doesnt exist so i restart the machine and checked again but the file was empty

I then install resolv.conf
As
sudo apt-get install resolv.conf
Then i added the nameserver 8.8.8.8
And
I ran

sudo NetworkManager restart

And it worked **

check how you have the firewall configuration, something similar happened to me a few days ago when I unconfigured the firewall and it gave me a dns error…
