When you try to go to any web site, is it redirection you to the same web page?
Also try 'dig @216.235.128.31 www.yahoo.com' and 'dig @216.235.128.31
www.freebsd.org' and if you get the same IP, you might need to
re-register with your ISP.

I had a similar problem, where their DHCP server got hosed and I
experienced the same issue.

Also :) did you pay your bill.
