How about no default route is configured?

route -n

should have a line at the bottom marked up as UG, this is where your 
machine sends packets if they don't match any of the other routes.  Mine 
looks like this for example, so 192.168.0.1 is the router that goes out 
to the world

# route -n
Kernel IP routing table
Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags Metric Ref    Use

192.168.0.0     0.0.0.0         255.255.255.0   U     0      0        0 
wlan0
169.254.0.0     0.0.0.0         255.255.0.0     U     0      0        0 
wlan0
0.0.0.0         192.168.0.1     0.0.0.0         UG    0      0        0 
wlan0
