Wireless connects, can access router cp but can't ping any host

Hi, I've been trying to access wireless. I've stoped and disabled net-auto-wireless.service and configured Gnome NetworkManager. Rebooted. Tried to connect to wi-fi, success. Tried to access google, failed. Tried to ping any website, failed. Tried to access router control panel (192.168.1.1) and I've got success. It is very strange and I don't know what to do. Now even wifi-menu doesn't work anymore. So, my LAN works but internet doesn't.

Note: I've tried to connect with wired connection and I've got the same problem. So, the problem isn't with the wireless drivers and etc.

Re: Wireless connects, can access router cp but can't ping any host

What is the output of ip route  ??
What is the output of host -v archlinux.org
How did you set your IP address?

# ip route
default via 192.168.1.1 dev wlp6s0 proto static
default via 192.168.1.1 dev wlp6s0 metric 303
192.168.1.0/24 dev wlp6s0  proto kernel  scope link  src 192.168.1.102  metric 303

#host -v archlinux.org
Trying "archlinux.org"
;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached

I have dynamic IP, I've used to connect to wifi with wifi-menu and now, since I've disabled net-auto-wireless.service, I'm getting this problem.

Note: I've tried to connect with wired connection and I've got the same problem. So, the problem isn't with the wireless drivers and etc.

I've noticed DNS is my problem. But it is set to be automatic. How can I solve it?

Well, solved the problem. The problem was that chattr +i was blocking etc/resolv.conf editing and system couldn't set a dns server.
