Hi,
I suspect that you may be suffering from dynamic modification of your
resolv.conf file.
Try the following: Start your internet connection: Start a terminal
session and su. Then "less /etc/resolv.conf.
I wouldn't mind betting you find something there that wasn't there when
you were diconnected.
I've had this problem with my dial-up connection.
Anyway try it; it won't do any harm.
Regards,
Colin Close
