Try system restore to a point when it worked.

i agree with per, that should restore your network settings back to when it was working.

if that doesn't work, your gonna have to ping the ip. open up the command prompt and type in "ping/ ip" w/o the quotes. then type in "ipconfig" also w/o the quotes. you should get the ip, subnet mask and default gateway addresses. if not, do it again until you see them. reset the modem and restart your computer. i have this problem with yahoo dsl all the time. thanks!!!

ps. have you recently uninstalled any firewalls or spyware programs? if so, that will mess with your network settings.

Hi,
Were you messing with services by any chance?

If so:

Enable DHCP

my DHCP Client is set to manual. the service is currently stopped and i can still get on the net. anything is worth a try though.
