One computer on network can't open internet pages

Hey - hoping I can get some ideas...

I have a wireless network in my home using a Linksys using a WRT300N router. My HP Desktop computer that is connected to the router both by cable and wirelessly suddenly can no longer access the internet although it's logged onto tyhe network. I have two other computers that connected wirelessly and they are having no trouble.

The desktop with the issue has a NETGEAR WG311v3 802.11g wireless card. I have tried both IE and Firefox and am unable to open any internet sites. I just get errors that the page could not be found errors.

What am I missing? Any thoughts would be appreciated,

Have you change something in the web utility of WRT300N router. If not then I suggest take the wireless card out of you computer and reboot it. Try to configure your network connectivity through ethernet card, which is comparatively easy as to configure wireless network.
Run the disc that came your router and configure your network connectivity through its utility. Once you established network then you can try connecting wireless card back into your computer and take it from there.

How can I get the router IP of my Linksys 2.4GHz broadband router?

The Linksys G router gives you both wired and wireless connections over a broadband Internet connect to create a local area network. The Linksys router is compatible with wireless G and B devices, through the 2.4-GHz wireless band. The wireless speed is at 54 megabytes per second and you can get 100 megabytes per second with a wired connection. You have to set up the wireless configuration on the Linksys before using it on your network.

Plug the router's power cable into an electrical outlet. Attach an Ethernet cable into the Internet port on the back of the router. Connect the other end into your broadband modem. Connect your computer to the Linksys G using another Ethernet cable. This Ethernet cable can go into any of the wired router ports. Open your Internet browser. Type "192.168.1.1" in the address bar and hit "Enter." This is your router's IP address and the home of its Web configuration page. Click "Wireless." Click "Manual." Alter your SSID, also known as your network name. You can change this name to any value that you want. You can also change the wireless channel if you are in an area with many wireless connections that may interfere. Click "Save Changes." Click "Wireless Security." Choose an encryption method to encrypt your wireless transmissions. WPA or WPA2 are common security protocols you can use in wireless networks. Input a network key, also known as the network password. Click "Save Changes."

Hey, need help here. Got linksys wireless-g

the great thing about the linksys brand is that they are owned by cisco and they will walk you thru the set up no matter when and where you bought that thing and they will spend all the time it takes to make you happy with the product. although the person you speak to will be in "new deli" india so they may need to repeat them selves many times.
have you tried access the router interface page with the computer hook directly to the router NOT wirelessly.???
I think I remember the linksys access page is at 10.10.10.100 in your internet explorer tool bar.
