Try '/sbin/service network restart'. You may need to be root user for the command to work, or use sudo if your user is set up for that. Then try pinging the gateway. BTW, are you sure that your gateway is 192.168.1.1 ? Also, try pinging 127.0.0.1. That's the local host.

Just for kicks, try using 192.168.1.254 as both gateway and DNS.
