    OK, take a step back and try the following:

    From your browser try to connect to 'http://216.239.59.147/' (Google). If you can connect then you have a DNS problem.

    Remove the router and see if you can connect (assuming you could connect before). If you can connect ok then you need to check the configuration of the router. Reinstall the router and do an 'ipconfig /all' from a cmd prompt and check your laptop ip settings, in particular DNS.
