wireless not working anymore........waah!

[Semidevil]

ok, so I just brought a microsoft wireless router, and it has been working great for 1 week. All of a sudden, my wireless is not picking it up anymore. I"M looking at my router, and it shows that all the lights are on.

I"m looking at my laptop, and it shows that it the signal is "excelent," yet, it can't go to the web. but it also says "Data Frame errors - check WEP settings."

anybody know what that error means? and how to fix it?

It most likely means that one end or the other forgot the WEP key, and can no longer decrypt the packets. Try re-entering the WEP keys on both sides.

hmm.......I have been trying to figure out a way to enter the WEP key...but I ca'nt find where it lets me do that....anybody know??

My wireless card came with software that helps you configure the wep and such. If you want to double check what the wep key is, go to your router's config.
