Linkskys? I have that and had the same issue. What I did is simply call for customer service and then the connection will be solved. It has something to do with the IP address. To do that, type your IP Address on the address bar and then fill in the blank. Something like that...

Well just type your IP address on the address bar and you'll see for yourself.

Well, I have the same problem also. What I did is refresh the system by unpluging the router and letting it sit for a couple seconds or right click on the wierless icon or looking in your internet conections and click repair.

Even I did that a billion times and still doesn't work! Just talk to customer service and get it over with.

Okkies.. clearing some stuff up..

1. Make sure that you have your 'encryption' methods and keys set on ALL machines. (They MUST use the same 'key' as the router.. otherwise, they won't have proper 'access'.. which won't let the machine connect to the router.)
2. Check your network configurations.
Look at your wireless connection settings.. check the ip address of your machine, to see if you have a valid connection. The ip address will appear under the 'details' menu on the left side of the screen. ^.^ An address of '0.0.0.0' means that there is no connection present. Depending on your router's configuration, your ip should have the first three subnets of your LAN.. ie. 192.168.0 (or 192.168.1, etc) the ip of the router will ALWAYS be 192.x.x.1. The ip of your machine can be anywhere between 192.x.x.2-254 (0 and 255 aren't used.)

3. Type '192.168.0.1' (or 192.168.1.1, etc..) until you get access to the router.
(Easier than remembering a dynamic ip, which can change at any time. -.-)
4. Make sure your router's settings are properly setup.
(If you don't know what something does, leave it alone.)

That's all you should need to do..

i found a new way to fix.

i returned my linksys and bought a netgear. i got to say netgear is much better than linksys and its easier to setup. plus its a little bit cheaper. but thanks for all you guys help
