as root:
ip route show (or route -n)
will tell you what your current routing table says.
You may already know that.
[root@lanky ~]# ip route show
192.168.22.0/24 dev eth0  proto kernel  scope link  src 192.168.22.220
192.168.0.0/24 via 192.168.22.170 dev eth0
169.254.0.0/16 dev eth0  scope link
default via 192.168.22.254 dev eth0

that 'default' line is important.

are you saying that you can ping 192.168.1.X but nothing else?
that would suggest two possibilities to me:
1) you have no default gateway
solution: 
system-config-network [Applications -> System Settings -> Networking]
double-click on the eth0 entry, and
make sure you default gw is correct.

2) no NAT rules in place between you and the outside world
solution: configure your router.
