Make sure you can ping gateway IP. Use nslookup in command prompt to try resolving domain/URL, see whether it works. If not, most likely it's DNS problem, configure following free DNS servers provided by OpenDNS on computer, after that test again. Hope it helps.
im not 100% sure on all of that :) sorry. where is nslookup? when i log into msn, it wont connect, so troubleshoot, and then repair and the problem is in DNS>!?! how do i fix that?? thanks so much!!

Just open command prompt and type nslookup, after that key in domain name/URL to test...
