Always go back to the basics. Make sure that You used periods (dots), not commas for your DNS numbers. If you've got large fingers, you can easily mistake the 2 keys (I know I have!). Also, sometimes you just have to re-enter the DNS numbers. Can you ping the DNS numbers of your ISP?? While you're connected to the Internet, go to a console, and enter the folowing; ping xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx Where the "X"'s represent the DNS numbers of your ISP. If you don't get a proper reply, could be their DNS server is down. Lastly, empty your Browsers cache memory. Then retry while still connected.
