I have a strange issue. I can connect to wireless networks from Linux
(Ubuntu 9.04 64-bit using rtl8187 chipset), but I can't see outside of
the LAN. I can ping the gateway and each computer while in windows. I
get the same dns, dhcp obtained info and can connect although the
Linux driver works better when it was working because with the windows
one, the internet often cuts out.

Connect to your AP

Post the output of of an ifconfig and your routing table ("netstat -r"
perhaps, I'm on AIX at the moment so I can't check the linux command,
it the equivalent of the Windows "route print" command).

You say you can ping the gateway whilst in Windows - can we assume
that you can do the same in Linux?

That's windows. Now I will reboot to Linux and do "route -n" and the
others. Yes, I can ping the gateway in Linux as well as other
computers on the network.
