can you give more details about how you normally connect to internet?

like, dsl modem? modem setup to do PPPoE dialling or you dial from OS normally?

type the output of "ifconfig -a" here? what is your internet provider?

Maybe you just need to ensure you set DNS servers (8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4) and Gateway (maybe 192.168.1.1) and it will work...
 
well my broadband connection is of BSNL.......and My gprs connection is of Aircel.......i saw that my mobile got connected when i just changed a few setting in Mobile Broadband option....but the problem is no pages are opening in Web Browser.....i can see that the internet is connected but still couldnt surf the net properly..ok i ll try by giving DNS....lets see whether it works or not.......
