Problem Accessing the Internet with Wireless

[bruderda]

I can connect to my wireless router, which I know is connected to the internet (because I've tried with an ethernet cord), but my laptop won't access the Internet. I can't browse web pages nor use AIM. What should I do?

I'm using: Windows XP Home; it is up to date.
Avast 4.7 Home Edition.
I have ran Spybot, Adaware, and Ewido Antimalware, and Avast! Antivirus on reboot.. I tried disabling Avast! to see if that was a problem but nothing changed.
I use Windows firewall, and avast! is listed as an exception.
No other antivirus software being used.
Note- I can access the Internet via ethernet cable, just not wireless.

Did this ever work? If so, what has changed? What hardware is involved?

[bruderda]

Yes, it worked. I don't know what changed. Atheros wireless network adapter and a Trendnet router are involved. The router definetly still works cuz I can connect to it with another computer and access the Internet. I think there's just some setting or something on my laptop that prevents it from accessing the internet even though I am definetly connected.

Go to start/run, type in command, and click OK. In the command prompt box type ipconfig and press enter. What is shown as the IP address?

So I reset my router and that solved the problem. Embarrasing.
Thanks for the help.
