go to "manage WIRELESS networks" in network and sharing
delete the wireless connection made to the router - this will trick your machine into thinking its never connected to the network
go to "manage networks connections" and right click on wireless
connect to chosen network and check "display characters" you can then see what your entering to cross reference with the wireless key.
that should then connect - if not, reset the router (pin hole in the back until lights change)
follow same process - you wull need to reconfigure router with your adsl UN +PW

Had to change my wireless router from netgear to lincsys. DSL (Verizon) router is bridged.
I tried to set-up with WEP keys. The strange part is that Apple Mac notebook connected in a breeze and was up and running as a champ. PC with Vista and Dell laptop (xps1330) with Windows 7 have the same exact issue described in the post.
To mention additionally, all computers connect with no issues if no security is enabled.
Tried to delete the wireless network on "manage your wireless networks" in the described manner. The final conclusion was (both computers) - to reset the wireless router. That was the only option. Haven't tried to set-up with WPA - that is the project for tonight.
So, my question is - is this a Windows-specific issue? Apple seems to have no issues with the network (or the other way around).

Just had the same issue with a friend... Belkin had set her up over phone and enabled MAC address configuration. windows 7 had limited (no internet) xp same.... couldnt find ip address
Disabled this mac address config (set with router on main desktop) .... all computers connect MAC's & PC's
Cheers, You probably sorted by now anyway!
