OS X Internet Connection Question

[xlu21]

When I open a web browser I get the progress bar half way then it stops. I cant view any web pages. I dont think is the connection because I am able to share files with a PC in the network. But I cant access the internet.
Can anybody help troubleshoot this? My knowledge on OS x is very very limited, almost none.

I'm assuming you're accessing the web via the network also. In that case it will be based on settings from the network administrator.

If you just have two machines hooked up to an ethernet router, you might have to set that router via your browser. Usually the "how to" that came with the router will tell you the address (it's local) and what to do.

Before you try that, go to Apple menu/system prefs. Click Network. Inthe next window just click the Assist Me button and you'll be guided through.
