connect ATMega128 to internet

I want to connect a ATMega128 to internet. I am looking for a low cost and
easy solution.
Is it possible to help me.

As I  am on time constraint, I will be so thankful if anybody reply me as
soon as possible.

-thanks.

1) Low cost
2) Easy solution
3) Short Time Constraint

You can have two of those things but all three is not going to happen. 
There are low cost TCP/IP stacks out there or modules you can buy that 
completely take care of the net side. Neither of these fulfill all three 
requirements.

Take a look at www.tibbo.com. We've been using their EM100 for years
now and I can highly recommend them.

I would recommend that you upgrade to an ARM MCU.  We were looking at a
new design based on an existing Atmega128 product.  I found that we
could use an ARM MCU and get a cheaper, faster and lower power
solution.  The only down side was the need to rehost the code, but as
it turned out the software team rewrote nearly all of it anyway.

Take a look at the AT91SAM7X processor.  It has built in Ethernet and
should do everything your ATmega128 does, but better.

The biggest drawback is that there isn't a nice IDE such as AVR Studio
available for ARM, at least not for free. Any recommendations?

There are GNU based tools available for the ARM and are very popular.
Some tool vendors even sell them rather than offer their own product.
Check out www.gnuarm.com.  If nothing else, you can use the eval
versions of the tools from commercial vendors for smaller project.  IAR
has an 8 or 16 kByte limit on the code but is otherwise fully
functional.
