I have a Linksys Wireless-B Router linked to a cable modem that two computers run off of. One is a Toshiba laptop (wireless) and the other is a wired Dell desktop. When I got back in town, the wireless service went haywire. The laptop says it is receiving an Excellent signal (speed: 11 Mbps) from the linksys router, but when I try to access a webpage, I get an error message stating "The page cannot be displayed, etc". I want to say that it is not a problem with the router, because the computer is receiving a signal. What could be causing this, and what can I do about it. Another computer that is accessing our wireless network (not a Toshiba) is having no problems with it. Also, when the Toshiba laptop is wired to the router, there is no problem accessing the websites. Please help. Any suggestions would be appreciated

Try powering the router off and back on and see if the problem goes away.

What is the signal strength of the wireless connection?
