other computers (wireless & wired) are going through the same router and
having no difficulties.  When I run the "ifconfig" command in terminal it
says it is up and connected.  When I ran the "ethtool em1" command I got
the "cannot get 'wake-on-lan settings: Operation not permitted' ".  Netstat
command results show connection also.  I can "ping" any website I want to
with positive results. I just can't get a connection through Firefox or any
other web browser I can download.  DoggoneBob.

Can you elaborate? Is Firefox reporting any errors? Did you check to see if
it was in offline mode, or did any of the other suggestions raised help?

I think you've established good network connectivity, so we need to take a
closet look at your browser.
