Click Start, then in the search field at the bottom type in "cmd" and hit enter. Type ipconfig and hit enter.

 

What's your default gateway? Should be 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.0.1. Type that into your internet address bar to log into your router. Your name/password should be admin/password, or just admin and blank. Depending on the router, it'll give you all kinds of info.

If your computer can update then it is something to do with your internet explorer settings. Try using chrome or firefox as a test if you can. If you can't, a reset of your internet explorer settings or a system restore (assuming you have a recent point) may be of use.

 

Cmd / ipconfig / release / renew is also a decent command string... resets the connection.
