    First things first, reboot the laptop.

    Secondly, if you still have trouble, see if you can connect using a cable. If you can connect with a cable, then it sounds like your wireless settings are screwed.

    Let us know how you get on.

    No, you just need to restart the laptop.

    Hi

    Try downloading and running the Winsockfix utility.

    This may resolve the problem if it turns out to be an IP issue.

    But try using the direct wired connection first!!
