Generally, buggy DHCP server. I often find external wifi does the 
reverse of this.

connect to wireless.

type >route

This tells you what the gateway _should_ be.

didn't set up right.

connect to eth0

repeat the above steps.

if it's route, >route add gw nn.nn.nn.nn (I think that's the right order :)

if it's resolv.conf, edit it / replace it with the wireless version & 
see if that works.
