But..but.. conman sucks....

If you can ping IP's but can't ping domain names then you know it's a DNS 
issue. Either it's not configured or misconfigured.

I'd also suggest modifying /etc/resolv.conf but that does NOT work for me.
I'd suggest adding the dns-nameserver entry to your 
/etc/networking/interfaces but that also doesn't work for me.

One post suggests that in order for /etc/resolv.conf to work you actually 
need 2 name server entries (
https://superuser.com/questions/413395/dns-not-set-up-properly-in-debian-linux) 
:

nameserver 208.67.220.220
nameserver 208.67.222.222

I'd use Googles DNS personally since my ISP actually tries to prevent me 
from accessing certain domains;

nameserver 8.8.8.8nameserver 8.8.4.4


Good luck
