Check the file /etc/resolv.conf to see if the correct (your) gateway is entered. Usually this is set at the default 192.168.0.1 and may need changing.  I assume you have /etc/network/interfaces set up correct.
When you do ifconfig, are there changes in the number of rx/tx packets?  i.e. is the network connection alive?
