    Wireless Network Connection" doesn't have a valid IP configuration


    I'm using Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit and I have a USB adaptor (a belkin on) but for some reason, my internet stopped working on my own computer. It will work on my phone and the computer that the router is connected to, but I get the error stated in the title. I am connected to the network, but the network is just listed as an un-identifed network with no internet acces.
    Would really appreciate the help! Thanks :)

    If you want the wireless to work again simply reset your router then go through the routers wireless settings again and use WPA-2 security and AES encryption.

    As it stands your wireless connection isn't getting anything at all from your router, no DNS, no default gateway or IP, no nothing. You will also need to unplug your eithernet cable in order for the wireless to work properly.

    Well, the thing is, I need to use WEP, and I'm not sure how to reset it.

    There will be a recessed hole on the side of your router with a button inside, you need a paper clip to push the button. You usually need to hold it down until the lights on the router start flashing. It's usually best to look up the reset procedure for your particular router.

    I'm not sure why you need to use WEP? Is your router really old or something? Your system certainly should be compatible with WPA2 with AES but I'm not sure which router you have.

    Also, your wireless connection will not work as long as your eithernet cable is still plugged into your machine.
