Re: wireless
Have you encrypted the wireless? As some routers allow you to connect initally then drop you if the password is wrong, or if you MAC address is not on its list if you have restricted it that way.

Re: wireless
If you have your WEP (Wireless Encryption Protocol) set then you will have a password set with it, you might have got it wrong.

Re: wireless
Well to be sure, turn the WEP off... the other things is that though your signal may be strong enough the quality might not be high enough to actually complete the connection. Trying getting closer and checking.

Re: wireless
Well I would reset the router, and ensure that the aerials have not come loose.
