FYI, I wouldn't reset the router until computer is checked first.
Depending on your type of connection you can find both of these
solutions in device manager.
For wired you need network adaptors. your net card should be listed.
Just arrow down to it and hit application key and then chose disable.
After that is done do the same and chose enable.
For wireless same place and same method.
Now that they have ben turned off and turned on You should be seeing
at least a connection to the router or out to the Internet. If still
not then check and make sure this is running.
How to get to it on xp, vista or win8.
start menu, run. Type "services.msc".
Now with xp you are looking for wireless zero with vista or win7 its
wlan. Now hit application key and chose start or restart. That one
will also stop you from seeing connection or even having one.
The main reason I say reset router last is, because if any changes
are made there you will lose them. A reset sets your router back to
factory defaults. Witch depending on router may reset all wireless settings.
I have found that most wireless connection failures are from the
external wireless shut off or internal settings. All laptops,
netbooks have these buttons and in the most strangest places. You
can identify them by blue color with a A with wavy lines on it. Most
of the time turning that off or back on will bring your connection back.

Daily Tip:
Fix A Dropped Internet Connection
If your Internet connection drops, the router or broadband modem may
be to blame. Start troubleshooting by unplugging the power cords
from both devices. Let them sit for a minute and then plug in the
broadband modem. Once its status light indicates that it has
Internet access, plug in the router. Within a minute or two, you
should be back in business. Other actions that sometimes do the
trick: powering down (but not unplugging) your PC when you unplug
the modem and router, and pushing the Reset buttons (if present) on
the back of your modem and router for several seconds.
Daily Term:
cloud
The definitions for "cloud" and "cloud computing" are still evolving
and subject to debate, but you'll find that many people are
referring to online services when they say something is "in the
cloud." Such services include online photo-editing services,
Web-based email services, online storage services, and more.
Businesses often think of cloud computing in terms of scalability:
Internet-based services that can scale to meet the changing usage
needs of a growing business. SaaS (Software as a Service), for
example, is software that his hosted online (instead of being
installed to your computers). It can be scaled for use by your growing company.
