I have a Dlink ADSL Router without wireless, so a year ago when I got my Asus A6G laptop I also got a Belkin Wireless Access Point.
Today I left the laptop connected and when I came back it was 'Unable to Connect' to the network. I restarted every piece of hardware mentioned with no luck and looked through the settings even though I had not changed anything.
Eventually I simply went to the wireless AP setup from the desktop PC (which connects via ethernet to the Dlink router) and redid the SSID, security, etc.
I also disabled the firewall (Comodo) on the laptop.
Anyway after going round in circles, many restarts, disabling, repairing the connection, trying the windows xp wireless client instead of the intel pro one, the message now is that the wireless connection is fine, it even says signal strength is excellent, and it logs in quicker than it used to. Problem, no traffic at all gets through. If I look at sent packets theres very few, and 0 received packets, plus I cant browse, connect to the other PC or even ping anything.
Any ideas? The worst bit is I am not sure what is the item thats not working now!
