Edit: After setting my router to be an access point only it works.


I just installed the OS, and setup the network connection.

I'm not able to access any webpage, or even ping/access my router.

I was also having the same problems on windows, before installing. However I was able to remotely connect with TightVNC.

Based upon what you show, if you're having problems connecting to the Internet, I would not review your PCs for problem, but, rather would review why the router (192.168.2.1) is not routing. Appears something wrong there.
