Right-click on the network icon in your system tray, and choose Edit Connection. You should then see your connection, probably (but not necessarily) as eth0. Highlight it and choose Edit. On the IPV4 tab you need an entry. In most cases you can simply give it the address of your adsl router or modem - often 192.168.1.1. What that does is tell your application to go through the router or modem and ask your ISP to resolve the addresses you give it. Let us know whether this solves it for you.
