    I dont know if any of you will be able to help me but im running out of ideas.

    For some reason i cant connect any new devices to my wifi. My laptop and ipod are working fine and are happily connected to the network. Its only when i try to connect another device like my other desktop or psp that it tells me that it has limited connectibility, even though it has full signal strength.

    Im confused with this one as its actually working for computers that had previously been connected to it.

    You entered the WEP key incorrectly.

    Remove the stored WEP key and/or replace it with the correct one.

    No i didnt. It was just a bug with my router. I just turned it on and off a few times and it fixed it.

    One would have figured that would have been obvious when it comes to wireless connections to restart the modem... I guess assuming common sense is too much.
