My ipod touch 4g has just been updated to the latest ios but it wont connect to the internet, even though it is wi-fi connected? please help

hi everyone, i've updated all software etc to ios 5.0.1 from ios 4.1 as it has taken me 1 year to figure out how do the update. Everything has been restored and working but i've been able to connect to my wi-fi but still won't let me use the internet, I have done the 'forget network' and re-connected back to my wi-fi but still no connection to the actual internet. Someone please give me some tips or hints. Thank you

Despite the WiFi sign you may not really be connected to your WiFi network.
Your router may not have given your iPod a valid IP address when the iPod requested it. To check on this go to Settings > Wifi > your network name and touch the ">" to the right to see the network details. If the IP address shown starts with 169 or is blank then your router didn't provide an IP address and you won't be able to access the Internet.
Sometimes the fix for this can be as simple as restarting your router (remove power for 30 seconds and restart). Next, reset network settings on your iPod (Settings > General > Reset > Reset network settings) and then attempt to connect. In other cases it might be necessary to update the router's firmware with the latest from the manufacturer's support web pages.
If you need more help please give more details on your network, i.e., your router make, model and version, the wifi security being used (WEP, WPA, WPA2), etc.
