Okay, so I was trying to set up my Xbox to get the internet off my Vista PC's Wireless Network. It seemed easy enough to accomplish. After spending a bit of time last night bridging networks etc.. I gave up. I was pleased to see that when I tried again this morning, for whatever reason eveything decided to work. However, I got home this afternoon and I am having much bigger troubles.
I turn on my comp and try to surf the web only to see that for some reason I cant connect to any webpage whatsoever. I figure it had something to do with all the tinkering I did with the wireless, so I set everything back to the way it originally was when it was working well. I undo all the bridging, sharing etc.. and still, no dice. I cant connect to any wepage at all. The really peculiar thing is that my connection wizard says that I am connected to the internet. I tried restarting the router, modem. I tried disabling and then re-enabling the wireless network adapter itself. I tried adjusting the IP information. Nothing works. I am about to pull my hair out because I cant see any reason why I cant access the internet.
I could care less about the xbox, so any advice on what to do to fix my internet problem?
Thanks

As for the xbox, you didn't need to muck around with the bridging networks, just enable ICS on the wireless
My internet claims it is connected and working fine, but it seems like it only works for a very short period of time (like it spikes on and then doesnt stay on). So I can connect to some pages sometimes, but other times it just doesnt load. Some other times, it starts to load, then gives me an error screen saying it cant connect.
Really freaking annoying

From what I can guess (I'm no way vaguely technically literate about networks...) but your router's DHCP server is off, and this usually keeps your DNS servers up to date. So you can either turn DHCP on in the router, or manually set some DNS servers for your wireless adaptor.
Thats not entirely accurate. His router is acting as a DNS proxy device, so he has no need to have DHCP enabled. Besides, as his ping of www.google.com worked, that means he's got good DNS resolution.
The thing that makes me wonder is those latencies. You're spiking up to nearly 500ms on 2 of those ICMP packets and that seems odd. It's possible you're simply running into some wireless interference. Can you try directly connecting your PC to your router and seeing if the issue occurs? If not, try changing the wireless channel you're using.
