I have an Edimax EW-7612PIn wireless card. Booted up my computer (13.10) with it inserted, and I was able to connect to my Wifi without issue.

However, I am unable to access internet sites.

Does anyone know what might be the issue?

This is a potentially relevant question but I have a different rtl.... so I am reluctant to go ahead on that

It is quite strange that you can ping the outside world; i.e. Google's DNS nameserver 8.8.8.8, but not your own router! Have you placed any settings in the Network Manager boxes? Generally, NM will handle all details for us without any intervention. Just be certain NM is set to Infrastructure and to use DHCP. Ordinarily any and all other settings should be left blank.

Is your wireless mode Managed; that is, configured for the most part by negotiation with the router?

iwconfig

What do these tell us?

route -n
traceroute 8.8.8.8

As these are likely to be lengthy, please copy and paste the results here and give us the link in your reply. http://paste.ubuntu.com/

Please try a driver parameter:

sudo modprobe -r rtl8192se
sudo modprobe rtl8192se swenc=1

If this helps, we can write a file to make it persistent.

What do the message logs have to report?

dmesg | grep -e rtl -e wlan

As it may be lengthy, use http://paste.ubuntu.com/ please.
