Step 1: check your /etc/resolv.conf file, and make sure it is pointing to
the correct nameservers.

Do you have a static IP, or are you set up with the usual DHCP
configuration? Maybe simply releasing and renewing your DHCP lease would fix
it, since DHCP reqrites resolv.conf.

I can ping comcast.net (from Pocatello, Idaho, connected via CableOne).
