    Running home network with Win 7 Pro and XP Home Edition. Have one problem laptop that connects to/recognizes the wireless router...but can't connect to the internet ? Prior to changing the WEP key for the system...this laptop would connect ?

    Have another laptop and a couple printers working fine on this wireless router (keys changed also on these)...but the Toshiba laptop will not go on-line ?

    The only other thing that changed is the 2 desktops now have Win 7 Pro...the other laptop that's connecting is/was XP Home SP3 and the problem Laptop is/was also XP Home SP3. Have checked and double checked the key...it is correct and must be if the router recognizes the laptop in the router configuration/attached devices.

    Please suggest what might be going on here...and how I can get the laptop re-connected to the Internet ?

    On problem laptop...Network Connections shows a status of "Connected" as does the little network icon in system tray as long as I set the IP address manually on the this laptop (other 3 working PC's have auto configure)

    Here's IPconfig /all on problem laptop with manual IP configuration:
