If you are using Wifi, simply disable the lan adapter from your control panel.

I had the same issue it seems the emulator connects to lan by default.

I have searched long and hard for an answer to this question. From what I gather Google prevented emulators from accessing the internet on purpose once people started using emulators to add spam comments to the market. However, I did find a guy who had done it and was willing to share the required images.

NOTE: It looks like it's just going to fix the market. But the market won't run without internet, so if the market is fixed, the browser internet will work too. I downloaded the linked files myself and it showed the internet in the browser perfectly.

Magically, i disabled the USB WiFi dongle and switched to a cable connection, and it started working! don't what the reason was, but for now, I am staying with Windows 7 to save some time I would have been spending in installing things on Ubuntu.
