Find your network connections (you didn't tell me your OS so I can't tell you how to get there) make sure your LAN is enabled and not in need of repairs. You should also make sure your computer is connecting that way. It will tell you under the icon in grey text if its disabled or disconnected, assuming Windows 7 or XP.
If that doesn't work I have a plethora of other ideas but I'm headed out so I'll tell you later.
