Is your computer connected to your own wired/wireless router?

Is your computer directly connected to the cable-modem or the DSL-modem?

 

If you have a router, check that its internal clock is set to the correct date/time.

Incorrect values can cause problems with the router's DHCP-client talking to the ISP's DHCP-server,

or to your computer's DHCP-client talking to the router's DHCP-server.
