Wireless Internet access

I use a laptop for work which I connect throught my wireless network in order to access the internet. Everything was working fine yesterday, but today I cannot access the internet.

I connect to my works VPN fine, and can use their corperate website, just not general internet browsing.

Only 1 thing has changed since yesterday - I set up a static IP address in order to use utorrent so it looks like that's the problem, but how do I correct it without changing my setting back because I still want to be able to use utorrent?

Thanks

Is the static IP one that was issued by your comapny's ISP or your Home ISP?

OK, I CAN now surf through the laptop, but only when I'm not connected to my works VPN? Any ideas why?
