Ubuntu 16.04 LTS won't browse the Internet?

Question

I am on a Lenovo ThinkPad W541 that can dual boot Windows 10 and Ubuntu. It was working fine on my University's network, but I went home for the weekend and Ubuntu 16.04 LTS will connect to my WiFi network, say it's connected, but won't actually browse, Firefox says it can't connect to servers.

It works fine on Windows 10 (which I'm using to write this) on the same network. I tried ignoring the IPv6 settings on the network in the network manager since I saw someone suggesting that on another thread, and also restarting network manager, but those did not work.

Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks!

Edit: This is what I get after running ifconfig:

I'm working on getting the other things to run. I can't run the script @Fabby linked to in the comments on my Ubuntu because it can't resolve the hostname, I'm going to try doing it in Windows 10.

@Pilot6 :D :D :D Although that's really funny, it doesn't help OP: it works on Windows on the same Home Internet... — Fabby, Feb 04 '17 at 21:43
@S. Far Welcome to Ask Ubuntu! ;-) Please have a lookin here first and then [edit] your question and add all relevant Wi-Fi info so that we can do a proper diagnostic. ;-) — Fabby, Feb 04 '17 at 21:45
Thank you for the quick response! I will edit the original post to show what happened. — S. Far, Feb 04 '17 at 21:59
Open a command prompt and run a ping test. Ping 8.8.8.8 and ping www.google.com. Can you ping them ? — hatterman, Feb 04 '17 at 22:06
If I ping 8.8.8.8, I get "Destination Net Unreachable". End result was 76 packets transmitted, 0 received, +73 errors, 100% packet loss, time 75138 ms. If I ping Google.com, I get unknown host. — S. Far, Feb 04 '17 at 22:16
