Hey, maybe your configuration for wireless needs adjustment. Check your DNS info and make sure its set up to obtain ips automatically and make sure the dns server is not filled in. If your encrypted, check the key and make sure its right.

What kind of setup do you have and when did it stop working?

Try this ................

Install winsock and run.......your machine will reboot...

Winsock flushes TCP/IP config.

that or look up how to release then renew your IP which could help you get back to a connected state. It is a simple process that takes about 5 minutes.
