connecting to LAN and getting great signal, but no net connection

I have taken my laptop, HP dv9000, to several locations and I find that I can
connect to the local LAN but I cant connect to the internet. I have tried to
diagnose and repair but every option I try does not work. I cant even
download updates for Vista or drivers. Please advise. If there is anything
I can do outside the internet I can do it easily. I even tried restoring the
computer to factory condition bu that didnt work. Please advise.

double post!
