Strange Networking Issue

(I already posted this in the Tech forum but no replies D; )

Here's the situation. I have a simple home network consisting of a computer and a ps3 in the living room which are connecting to the internet fine wirelessly.
However, in the bedroom there's a computer that our wireless router is plugged into. (wall->router->computer and wireless signal)
This computer usually connects to the internet fine but as of late the connection is lost.
What baffles me though is that the computer and playstation outside still get an internet connection wirelessly through the router while the host computer isn't getting the connection wired. I'm no networking slouch but there must be something I'm overlooking. The computer's not connecting manually (wall to pc)
Anyways, this pc is rather old so i'm guessing the ethernet port blew? can that even happen? Help please!

Thanks in advance!

EDIT: Linksys WRT54GS Router btw.
