Let's revive this thread. I'm having this same problem again.

In a way, it does have to do with the ISP because it provided the
router and other equipment to get on-line. So, anything that happens
is the ISP's fault.
As to what causes it, I have gained a clue. I had the network pain
of System's Prefs open while hitting the "try again" button over and
over. What it kept saying was that the computer was trying to get on
line but kept getting a self-assigned IP address and could not access
the internet.
So, what causes that?
Also, Simon seems to be correct that the problem is in the local
network. I unplugged the network cable from the wireless router and
plugged it directly into my computer. I got on-line. So the
wireless router is not working. Why?
