You have to have a router. The public Internet is not Wireless. Somewhere there is a wire and a router. Unless you are doing this from a park bench or an Internet Cafe... Or "stealing" your neighbor's WiFi.
What do you have for an ISP? Cable? FIOS? DSL? Municipal Fiber? Or something else? *Every* WiFi router *I* have *ever* seen includes a 4-port Etherswitch, Yes, it is *possible* to use your Ubuntu laptop as a router, but getting it ALL setup properly is not trivial. Some of it requires some Linux admin magic. It appears you are not quite there. Note: the USB Internet provided by the BBB is not really intended for much more than basic setup. If it really is impossible to get a hard network connection, you might have to get a USB wireless dongle. The BBB does have a USB A connector that is a USB host.
