Assuming you're on a Windows platform: from a command prompt (start > run > cmd), what does "ipconfig /all" (without the quotes) tell you?

Okay, I got the connection to the laptop back by turning off the WEP.

Gives me a whole bunch of data. What do I need to look at?

Hmm, that would seem to indicate the problem is with WEP itself. Are you sure your HEX/ASCII settings and key lengths are the same on the router and laptop?

This has taken ALL evening, and I'm back in the same place I started in.

Fun, isn't it? Wish I could be more help. Maybe some googling would give you some insight into what's wrong. Kudos for trying to secure your wireless.

Trust my rage

Ginger, Joe had a Treo and he *loves* it. I personally think the keys are a bit small, but Joe says you get used to it. It has allowed him to work without being at work in many circumstances. I know nothing about the Blackberry, however, so I can't really compare them.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
