Hi

Dial-up or Broadband connection? Have you checked with your ISP to see if
they have any problems? You may be better off posting to the Network_Web
News Group:

Go to Start, Run, type CMD. In the command prompt type "ipconfig /renew"
(note the space).

Either you will get an new IP address or a clue as to why you can't. Pay
attention to full text of error messages.

It can be as simple as a loose cable, including power to the router or
cable/dsl modem, depending on how you are connecting.
