Yesterday evening after working perfectly for a year or two, even though the Netgear router shows a signal the wireless icon blinks on and off every second. I have my desktop as the host computer wired to the router. I have two laptops both until yesterday wirelessly connected without a hitch. Now one laptop says it's connected at full strength but will not access the internet. The other doesn't pick up the signal (the newest one). The one laptop says it is not getting an IP address that I am assuming is given automatically through my ISP. I have DSL . I pushed the reset button and created another profile set the laptops up to this new one. Both laptops found the signal but won't connect. Can anyone give me really simple step by step things to look for? Thanks, Ginny

Run ipconfig /all from a command prompt & post the output on all machines with the problem. How do you know when a politician is lying? His mouth is moving.
