After upgrading my Ubuntu 11.04 to 11.10, my internet browser (ie: firefox, chrome, etc) and I can't even ping google.com to check if I have a connection to the internet. But, I can ping my other machine.
The fix that I did was very simple:
If you're currently on your desktop please switch to a terminal
Step 1: CTRL + ALT + F1
Step 2: Enter your username and password
Step 3: Enter the following command
sudo -i
service network-manager stop
dhclient eth0
dpkg --configure -a
Then try to ping google.com and that should work. Don't forget to reboot or you can switch back to your desktop by pressing CTRL + ALT + F7
