try reformatting your laptop, that seems to fix alot of dumb WINBLOWS problams..lol

are you dial up or broadband, if borad band it may have dumped you connection in you need to reload it

Are you connecting directly to the cable modem or are you connecting through a router? Sometimes you have to reboot your cable modem and/or you router. I actually had to buy my ouwn router because the one provided by Camcast was giving me trouble.

try changing the port you are accessing by on the router. if the laptop has wireless, turn it off, unless you are using a wireless router also. no need to format, waste of time and data.

go to start, run and type 'cmd' (without the quotes). a screen will up up. when it does type:

ipconfig /release

ipconfig /renew

when its done, hopefully your internet works. it destroys and reloads your old sessions for your internet connection with the router.
