Have you installed the ethernet drivers?
Look in Device manager to see if any drivers are missing.

You might want to verify from your ISP that your modem is online if you have one. If it is, then are you behind a router? bypass the router if you answered yes.
If you can get online, the problem is with your router.
If you can't then you may have firewall problems. Turn off your firewall, try to connect.
If none of this works you may have a bad NIC.
