Go to start, run, type "cmd" From the DOS window that appears type "ipconfig". If the IP address listed starts with a 169. x. x. x you are getting an APIPA (automatic personal ip address). You router is not giving your computer a valid DCHP address.

If you are using a laptop make sure the wireless network card is turned on. If you are using a USB network card try re-seating it.

Is the network card working fine (device manager)? Can you connect to another wireless network with your computer? Check the wireless network settings on both devices (ssid, decryption,... )

Try rebooting your router. If that doesn't work then I suggest running Windows Help with the wireless connection off. You may need to update your drivers.

There maybe a problem with your wireless router or the wireless card in the computer, you should check to see if the wireless card is in working order.
