In case it's the firewall settings (as some others have suggested), go to
the comand prompt and type lokkit to get the firewall configuration, pich
something like High Security and then customize. A screen will let you
choose trusted interfaces and also what ports to open. You don't need to
specify DNS if you need it, apparently it's enabled later on in the bootup
process.
