I had a similar problem.  I was using Windows in internet sharing mode =20
with my Linux machine going to the windows machine for it's access to the=
 =20
internet.  The fix was to change the gateway and the primary and secondar=
y =20
DNS values on the Linux machine.  Previously the gateway was the linux =20
machine.  Now it's the router address. My LAN uses fixed IP addressses, s=
o =20
I had to put the values from the info provided by the router.
Hope this helps.
