Can't get wireless laptop to connect to BEFW11S4

[Pastore]

It says it's connected everywhere I go, but it hangs at "Acquiring network address" and won't do anything. Any ideas what to try? If you need to know anything just ask.

WEP/WPA problems usually. Turn security off and test, to make sure bare bones functionality is there (you can get an IP, Ping, ftp, etc). THen start stacking your security settings back on, testing it after each change. Usually "associating" with an AP, but not getting an address is encryption or authentication related.
