          May sound silly - but reconfiguring the interface by means of the according module from Kubuntu's "System Settings" (or KDE's own "Control Center") might make a difference (?).

                at last victory

                for everybody

                Steps to configure:

                1.Remove all dhcp entries in /etc/network/interfaces.it should look like

                auto eth0
                iface eth0 inet static
                address 192.168.1.2
                netmask 255.255.255.0
                gateway 192.168.1.254

                *above is an arbitrary example

                2.then edit /etc/resolve.conf

                it should look like

                nameserver 208.67.222.222
                nameserver 208.67.220.220

                *above is an arbitrary example

                3.then ping preferred DNS

                4.then ping http://google.com
