Sorry, may I just recap on this?

Web access has failed (i.e. your web browser cannot find anything), but 
the Internet connection is still there.

So do email and ping work?  Try something that is likely always to be 
there, e.g. ping bbc.co.uk, and check that it resolves an IP address 
(e.g. 212.58.244.67)

If it doesn't resolve an IP address, there's something squiffy in the 
way your DNS is running.

Andrew.
