Your computer's wireless adapter is SUCCESSFULLY connected to your router (at 192.168.1.1).
The value for "DNS Server" is OK -- it is the IP-address of your router.
If your router cannot resolve a name, such as 'www.bing.com', to an IP-address, it will ask the DNS-server operated by your ISP (Internet Service Provider) to "resolve" the name.
From a command-line prompt, try the command: ping 8.8.8.8
This is the IP-address of a DNS-server operated by Google --> google-public-dns-a.google.com
Also, '8.8.4.4' is the IP-address of another DNS-server operated by Google.
There might be something wrong with your copy of Internet Explorer.
So, on another computer, download Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox or Apple Safari, to a USB memory-stick.
Then, connect the memory-stick to your computer, and install one of these web-browsers, to see if they work.
Note that all support for Windows XP ended in April 2014 -- a long time ago.
So, some web-browsers may "refuse" to install on an XP system.
