Wired internet connected, but no access Windows 7

I recently decided to reinstall windows 7 because I had a few problems. After I reinstalled it, I had no internet. I thought "Well, I'm probably just missing a driver."
So I installed a driver, and the internet showed as "connected", but when I open my browser, none of the pages load.
I'm been googling and done everything my amatuer brain can think of.
Anyone here who can help? Just tell me what information to provide, and how, and I will do my best. So please, help me fix this!

Edit: Btw, I'm not actually sure I'm using the right driver. I'm using one from Realtek, and it says it's working, but it's not the one I used before, and since my PC is custom made, I don't have a manufactur website to refer to.

Well there is your problem, you are using proxydns.com. Go the your network card properties (where you unchecked IPv6) but click on IPv4, properties. Click on "Use the following DNS server address and type the following 74.207.242.231 and secondary 50.116.28.138

Done. Didn't change anything, although I haven't restarted my PC. Or was I supposed to copy the information and paste it here?

Edit: Here's the information from the ipconfig /all:

Are you sure your router actually has an internet connection? Might be a silly question but everything looks okay. Try to ping 192.168.1.1, and then ping an outside site, like google.com

Yes, I'm pretty sure my router works. I'm using the wireless on my laptop right now, and the wired worked right until I reinstalled Windows.
It might be worth mentioning that I actually managed to install Windows 7 updates, but the download didn't do anything for several minutes, then it suddenly spiked for a couple of seconds, then went dead. Rinse and repeat every 20 or so minutes. I haven't been able to access any web pages, though, no matter the browser, nor does my Utorrent work.

Your internet is working fine if you can ping outside destinations. Try downloading an offline installer for Chrome, or an update for IE and then transfer it to the PC you're having problems with and install Chrome or update IE.

Just tried using the offline installer for Chrome, and even though it installed fine, it didn't fix the problem. It's still unable to load web pages.

Done. Nothing changed. It still says that all the web pages are unavailable.
This is so annoying! >.<
Is there nothing that can be done?!

In internet Explorer, go to tools, internet options, click on connections, If anything is entered in Dial Up and Virtual Network settings" delete it. Below click on LAN settings and check the box the says "Automatically detect settings"

There was nothing to delete, and the LAN settings were already on auto.

Right click on My Computer, Properties, Device Manager, click on view, show hidden devices. Then click on network adapters, is there anything that is not working or in yellow? If not try disabling anything that has IPv6. Then go to start, type cmd. type ipconfig/release then ipconfig/renew.

There were nothing that were yellow or anything of the sort.
Here are the drivers, in order:

Microsoft ISATAP Adapter
Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller
Teredo Tunneling Pseudo-Interface
WAN Miniport (IKEv2)
WAN Miniport (IP)
WAN Miniport (IPv6)
WAN Miniport (L2TP)
WAN Miniport (Network Monitor)
WAN Miniport (PPPOE)
WAN Miniport (PPTP)
WAN Miniport (SSTP)

I disabled the IPv6 one, and then did the release and renew part.

Nothing seems to have changed, but I haven't restarted my PC yet. Want me to do that?

No, I don't run my own dns server. I did, however, use a proxy pre-reinstallation because some websites were blocked off in my country. I used the website "proxydns.co", if I remember correctly.

If that goes not work, go the your network card properties (where you unchecked IPv6) but click on IPv4, properties. Click on "Use the following DNS server address" input 8.8.8.8 (googles dns) and hit okay.

IT WORKED! both my browser and Utorrent are working now.
Only problem is that Youtube now gives me "500 internal error" when I try to access it. It might be a separate issue entirely, but I figured that maybe it has something to do with the fact that the DNS you gave me belongs to Google, who owns YouTube. Is there an alternative DNS I could use? At any rate, though, thanks a bunch for the help.
Edit: Nevermind, it works now. Still curious as to whether or not the Google DNS will have any future impact, though.
Second edit: Nevermind again, just read your latest post. Once again, thanks a lot for the help! Couldn't have done it without you. Truly, thank you.

Third edit: all right, the 74.207.242.231 and 50.116.28.138 didn't work, so I'll just use Google's.

Fourth edit: ignore above edit. Was a different issue entirely.
