if the page is loading slowly, then reset Internet explorer or use and alternate web browser, such as mozilla firefox or opera. if internet is not working at all. do this step and let us know

1) open cmd in start search box.
2) check your default gateway, for router's address by typing this command ipconfig /all.
3) type ping "default gateway" (mostly its 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.0.1)
4) type ping 4.2.2.2 and let us know the results about both the ping statistics.
