You might try rebooting your router, and then rebooting your PC.
Sometimes the DHCP servers on these SOHO routers get borked, and I've
also seen cases where Linux won't pick up the DHCP packets once an
invalid address has been assigned without a power cycle of the network
card.
The bottom line is that you don't have a valid address on your network,
and are probably also getting invalid entries in your resolv.conf file.
If nothing else works, assign an IP address manually with the ifconfig
utility, and manually assign some nameservers (from OpenDNS, say) in
your /etc/resolv.conf file.
