As i understood your problem is firewall OK?
If iptables is ok i think there is no any problem with firewall..

no , firewall is not problem ( there is non firw\ewall instaled on maschine )

i'm thinking maybe the network card is problem?!??

it seems that software is ok , i suspect hardware , any ideas???

I think three things are cause this problem.

1. DNS settings (Maybe DNS servers are not working)
2. /etc/resolv.conf
3. Hardware

Can you check these items.

let's just think for a minute.

dns:
if dns is not working , than it would be problem all the time , not only when i stop pinging from the router.

/etc/resolve.conf:
pretty much the same answer

hardware:
posible

thanks , anyway
