I wonder if your firewall is blocking ping scans. Disable the firewall and see 
if you can ping google.

In my firewall, I do:

# Block ping scans
iptables -A INPUT -p icmp --icmp-type echo-request -j DROP
# ... but not coming from our LAN
iptables -A FORWARD -p icmp --icmp-type echo-reply -j DROP
iptables -A OUTPUT -p icmp --icmp-type echo-reply -j DROP
