can you ping ip addresses?  for example, can you ping

216.239.33.101

?  (that's www.google.com)  if so, you're only missing entries
for your DNS name servers from your ISP.  once you have those,
put them in /etc/resolv.conf like:

nameserver 192.168.0.1

where 192.168.0.1 is replaced with your name server, naturally.
