Is the wireless on adsl/router switched on. Sometimes you have to enter the router configuration page to setup the wireless router.

Not enough information mate!!
What brand and model router are you using?
Is the wireless enabled on the router?
Can you find the wireless network in the Networks list?
What have you done so far to try and connect?

Are you sure you are not capped?
Anyway, try connecting an ethernet cable to the router and laptop, then see if you are able to browse all sites. Doubt that's the problem though. Are you sure you are connecting to your router and not someone elses??

Know issue with the Telkom firmware on the DG834GUV5, change security to WEP, you should now be able to connect, it is important that you connect.
Then delete the network settings from Vista, change the security to WPA-PSK [TKIP] + WPA2-PSK [AES] and reboot the router.
Let me know if your issue is not resolved.

Mike

Could you connect using WEP and or do you have an Atheros Wireless card in your notebook?

Try resetting the router after upgrading the firmware: http://www.hcom.co.za/support.html#

I don't know what you tried, but your Wireless IP settings seemed correct, except for the fact that you had BOTH LAN & WiFI connected to the same gateway (router) at the same time.
Your WiFi did get an IP, Gateway & DNS - so the routing should work correctly via wireless. Was your WiFi's IP address settings set to automatically detect? If it were, then I would guess that your Internet should work - unless the DNS servers you're using on the router has issues, which would cause both LAN & WiFi failing to load webpages.
Also note that Windows Vista/7 won't say that you have Internet connectivity if you don't have international bandwidth/cap left.
