Why is my laptop running Vista displaying limited connectivity?

My Compaq laptop which I had for more than a year running Windows Vista is now all of a sudden displaying limited connectivity when I try and connect to the internet whether wireless or wired internet. It is really frustrating for me as I had virtually tried everything. This problem only just occurred 2 days ago and it has always been connected to the same ADSL broadband modem throughout this year and now all of a sudden it says limited connectivity. I tried resetting the network adapter, tired some programming and countless other ways that I found online but to no avail, I even tried the windows diagnose and repair tool and I also tried Microsoft but to no avail.

Please any Help would really really, be appreciated.
