I just got a laptop (Asus G60) and when I try to connect to my wireless network all it says is I have limited access and wont let me go online. I have a linksys router (model WRT31ON V2) Any ideas what I'm doing wrong? Any help would be great thanks.

Sounds like you either need the router to assign an IP address, or you need the router to assign a new IP address if you're having conflicts with another computer on the system.

This is the default message you get from Windows if you are using an invalid WEP/WPA key. The key you used to connect is no longer correct. Either its been changed on the router or on your pc.

Be sure you have DCHP enabled and your none of your gateway address conflict. (ie, Modem and router gateway being the same) For instance, lets say your modem is 192.168.100.1 (which it probably is), you'll want to set your router to 192.168.1.1 (which it should be), or another local IP range and tell it to start issuing IPs within that range.
