I am experiencing a similar issue with Ubuntu 12.04 & 12.10 running on a new Dell XPS Ivy Bridge.
I have detailed my experience on the Ubuntu Forums http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=12477970#post12477970

From what I can deduce, the issue relates somehow to DNS rather than just network connectivity. As the following video shows, pinging Google.com compared to pinging the ip address of Google.com have drastically different results.
