If you can PING your gateway, then there was no need for the 'WINSOCK FIX'.
Access the web-server "inside" the router, and look at the table of DHCP clients -- confirm that your computer's "wired" and "wireless" connections are listed, and that they have been assigned IP-addresses.
The router should have its own 'PING' interface, so try PING-ing to 'ns.watson.ibm.com' -- you should get output like:
Pinging ns.watson.ibm.com [129.34.20.80] with 32 bytes of data:

if your router has an Internet connection.
My router does ping to ns.watson.ibm.com and it did ping. My wired and Wireless connections are not listed on my router. Hmm.....
I understand that you have one computer with two network-connection (wired
Yikes! FIXYA truncated my reply, losing 90% of it.
If there is any 'firewall' software running on the computer with both the 'wired' and 'wireless' connections, disable it, or uninstall it. It could be blocking the DHCP-requests from your computer to the DHCP-server 'inside' your router. Restart the computer, to see if DHCP-requests issued 'during' the start-up of Windows are allowed.
