Internet connection problem

I just got a new HP laptop with a Broadcom wireless card. I use Sympatico Ultra as ISP and they supply the modem/router with the wireless connection. I set-up the wireless network according to their directions, including wireless security, etc.

"Connected" and "Signal strength: very good", "Security-enabled". But I can't get my browser to connect to the Internet (I tried with IE and Firefox). It just doesn't find the DNS. I called Sympatico and they say they don't support the Broadcom card. They suggested that it might have to do with the driver. Any suggestions?
