I am using Ubuntu 12.10. My internet connection was working fine. I tried to connect college LAN after changing IP but it didn't work. Then I changed to previous IP and tried with to connect but now it is showing Connection established but there is no internet access. Output of ifconfig is not having wlan and eth1 is showing interrupt17.

$ ifconfig
eth1      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:26:22:c8:2d:2a  
          inet addr:192.168.61.57  Bcast:192.168.61.255  Mask:255.255.255.0

What can I do to get this working?

If your college uses dynamic addressing(that is how it usually is), changing your IP address manually is not advisable. Did you add or remove any other setting recently before your internet connection broke? And don't worry about wlan, its your wireless, you need to enable it using the switch on your keyboard to enable it. – Jobin Feb 19 at 9:41

It seems your output is very standard. As @Jobin suggested if it is dynamic address then you should not configured it manually. But since it was working previously it may static ip. Then you should also take care that other people are not using same ip address. In any case I think your college network administrator is the best person to help you in this situation. – Apurba Feb 19 at 10:19
