Can you connect other Web Browsers (IE, Chrome, Safari) to the internet ??

IF Yes, then use the Connection Settings as set in those browsers. You can also Import Settings from other Browsers as:

-> Tap ALT key or press F10 to show the Menu bar

-> go to File Menu -> click Import... -> Use this Import Wizard

Check and tell if its working.

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
