do you get ip from DHCP or static ip? have you checked the gateway
settings on your machine?

what is the error u get? have u tried pinging to google.com? 
try these commands

1. ping 4.2.2.2
2. ping www.google.com

if command 1 succeeds & 2 fails that means that your dns settings have a
problem. 

if the error msg is "destination host unreachable" then your gateway
settings are the problem.
