If you run plugged directly into the modem, do you have access? Your connection may be down or you may need to reconnect.

This is the message i get.
Local Area Connection Status: Limited or No Connectivity. You might not be able to access the internet or some network resources. This problem occurred because the network did not assign a network address to the computer.

I think that your connection is bad/ or down.
What kind of internet access do you have? If you go to the modem/router's IP does it show you as connected. If you have DSL you should probably be connected via PPPOE.
