BSNL Dataone Connection Problem : Unable to Access any web page

Hello Friends!
My BSNL Dataone connection is not being able to access any web pages using the browsers or cannot even access the Mails[OE] or Instant messengers like Yahoo,Windows Live but at the same time the networks which softwares like Limewire,Cute FTP,Bit Torrent or even Skype uses are working fine and this has happened all of a sudden yesterday without any major change in the system or without even installing any software/.hardware to it.

Can someone please point out what is the problem with my system or connection and how to get over it ?
Any advice is greatly welcome.Please help me

Use these addresses as your DNS servers.
208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220.

This will help you in setting up.

Thanks a lot for your reply.I will surely try that out, but before I log out of here another thing I thought I must mention here.I ran Live Messenger troubleshooting and that says the problem lies somewhere in the DNS as that cannot resolve IP and also in Key ports.But,BSNL people saying there is no change in DNS server anywhere in between and I haven't changed anything in the LAN Connection set up as well.
So,why would things go wrong all of a sudden. And while changing the DNS Servers,do I have to change it in the modem configuration page as well or not.

BSNL people are lying,BSNL DNS servers have downtimes.I have used H500 from BSNL and i often used to have problems due to the DNS servers being down,i also changed the DNS server addresses and the problem got fixed.
No you don't have to configure your modem just the lan card.

By the way,are there a list of DNS which one can keep trying out in case their DNS are seeing downtime like it is happening with me now?
Anyway,thanks a heartful for all your replies.

There is no fault of BSNL guys in this. The fault is of BSNL as they hire unknowledgeable people. They said this because they don't even know what is DNS....They all are noobs and lack technical knowledge. The guy who came to activate my connection 3 years ago (on this day only...:D) didn't even know how to connect through PPPoE.

Yes,maybe you are true too! Shame on them if they run a 24 hour help center and man it with people who don't even know what to do to help their customers over phone; At least they should arrange a detailed training for those that are getting employed and are out to serve the customers.Or what the use of having the 24 hour help line number? You can't imagine,what this simple thread did in just a few seconds,the people there can't solve it in two days and talking for about one hour taking down all the details and saying all sorts of lies and things which would made even a novice laugh; Anyway,it's good that Internet only comes to your help when you need help to connect to it
