I had the exact same issue after upgrading from Linux Mint 16 to 17. Till Mint 16, internet was working fine. It stopped working after upgrading to 17.
Here's the solution I have:
gksudo pluma /etc/resolv.conf
nameserver <IP address of router>
nameserver 192.168.1.1
Save and close, Restart mint. Internet should start working now.
In my case I have a TP Link Modem / router device.
1remember that nameserver 'IP' = default gateway as the router is either configured to obtain DNS from ISP or has manual DNS entries – Rudolph – 2014-07-31T12:09:26.507
You haven't mentioned what you used before. Also as mentioned here you could try connecting it to an USB 2.0 port instead of a 3.0 one.

iw*firmware
packages. – arielnmz – 2014-06-29T04:13:14.093
