:cry:

Last week I connected succesfully with my wireless router and had internet explorer working terrificlly with my ISP Roadrunner of Austin.  Alas, this week, I have to bypass the router in order for my explorer to work.  This is no solutiion because I and my wife have our own jobs that we need to connect to and can't do that with the wireless disconnected.

Any ideas so that we can get back to wirless & explorrer working simultaniously?

Thanks

Hi Samwise and welcome!

When you hook up the laptop to the router, do you know if it is connecting?  If you are using Windows XP it should tell you in the system tray (bottom right) something like "Wireless Connection | Status: Connected".  Otherwise, you can check by going to 'Network' from the Control Panel.  Knowing this is a good point begin to troubleshoot your issue.
