For (1)

Check that you have "dns=dnsmasq" in the "main" section of
"/etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf" for NM-dnsmasq integration.

Check "/run" for "nm-dhclient<...>" and "nm-dnsmasq-<...>" and check
"/run/resolvconf/".

I installed xubuntu on a friend's netbook this morning and wifi worked
out of the box with NM, dnsmasq, and resolvconf. "/etc/resolv.conf"
should point to "127.0.1.1" not "127.0.0.1" (although it shouldn't
*really* make a difference, but I haven't checked).

For (2)

The default gateway should be provided by dhclient.
