I am facing a confusing problem. while using my home Wifi on ubuntu 14.04 amd64, my internet connection suddenly gives no response but in notification area it is shown as connected.

I switched my wifi on and off, it connects to my device but still no response.

My gateway is 192.168.1.1, my mask is 255.255.255.0, my IP is 192.168.1.38 but when i ping the gateway no result comes back.

I restarted couple of times, same problem.

Then I restarted and boot into my fedora 20 x86_64, same problem.

Then I restarted and boot into Windows, no problem there. everything works.

Then I restarted and boot into ubuntu again, the problem is fixed!!!!

This has happend to me so many times at home.

Can anyone tell me what is going on? What extra information i should search about?


Edit: I started downloading something and it happened again.

here is my ifconfig -a:

and here is my route -n:

I also checked these commands after and before mysterious disconnection, i think results are the same.


Edit: I also stopped ufw and iptables services and then,

here is my iptables -L -n -v

 pkts bytes target     prot opt in     out     source               destination         

Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT 0 packets, 0 bytes)
 pkts bytes target     prot opt in     out     source               destination         

Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT 21 packets, 1764 bytes)
 pkts bytes target     prot opt in     out     source               destination         

and here is my arp -a

Edit: here is my lspci -vvnn | grep -i wireless -A 10:
