Updated BIOS and lost Internet

I have an Inspiron 1501 and recently updated the BIOS for a battery message.  Although that message is gone, now I can't connect to the Internet.  The computer won't connect to my wireless, even though it receives the signal.  When I tried to connect directly through the cable modem (even with a new Ethernet cable), the computer says that is is not connected.

 

Any advice?

How do I check or change the BIOS settings? 

 

Please understand, my computer literacy doesn't go beyond operating basic software packages.

Restart PC.

Then hit F2 key when it starting booting up.
