Ensure that the DNS settings are entered in - these can be obtained from a machine on your network that does work. The DNS settings transfer IP address' into actual websites, so it probably does work at the moment... you just need to enter in IP's instead of web addresses ;o)

Shanix - From what you've written, it sounds as though you may be having the same problem I'm having on my test machine. I can pull up Web pages on my Intranet, but once I get out to the Internet access is so slow that the Web is virtually unusable.

How can I establish an internet-connection?

That usually happens automatically if Vista can detect your modem/router, You can connect without a DSL modem. But you need some kind of modem or router to connect. Did you get here through XP or something?
