From Ireland, wait an hour or two and see if it still is not working, odds are a router somewhere. You can sometimes even do a traceroute to a place like Google, then Digg and see if they break at the same point confirming a router issue. At least your still here

can you hook your modem directly to the modem instead of your router to determine if the router may be configured wrong?

no don't do that, im sorry was thinking no connection.
Try this in command line
ipconfig /release
ipconfig /renew
ipconfig /flushdns
netsh winsock reset
then reboot
