You have no default route and so the kernel doesn't know where to send
packets destined for IP addresses outside your local network
(192.168.0.0/24) or localhost (127.0.0.1).

Next question is, are you being assigned the IP addresses by a DHCP
server, or are they statically assigned?

If it's statically assigned, you need to specify the default gateway
under the network card configuration. If it's assigned by a DHCP
server, the gateway should be auto-configured.

IP is statically assigned which promted me to look at all the settings
and I found that the default gateway had mysteriously dissapeared... Put
it back in and eveything is working again.

Thanks to David & everyone else that helped!


Yeah that happens. Your router should be able to assign static
addresses for you by connected ethernet MAC addresses. Instead of you
assigning addresses.
