Hi,
I had a similar problem after re-installing windows, modem would dial and appear 
to connect ok, but then I/Explorer would not connect to my ISP or any sites, I found 
the cause, but it may not be the same in your case, here's what i did, go to control 
panel, double click network, and make sure you see a dial up adaptor, also under 
the adaptor, make sure you've got a line that say's "TCP/IP ->Dial Up Adaptor" , 
there may be other lines that include NetBUI etc. Basically these are protocols that 
have to be present for windows to recognise the network, in my case I did have a 
dial up adaptor, and another line underneath that just displayed "TCP/IP" i.e not 
the full string, so I removed and added one, using the options shown, then it worked 
ok. Good luck,
