Hi there,
1.Did u tried to reset your wireless router?
2.Go Start->Control Pannel->Network Connections->(right click) Properties -> See if there is no Tcp/Ip v6 protocol (usualy this come with some updates, if it is uninstall it)->Go to Internet protocol TCP/IP check Obtain an Ip adress automatically / Obtain DNS server automatically. Restart pc after apllying settings.
3.If is still not working try to make a connection on laptop with anoter wireless router and try another laptop (friends, neighbours) on your router to see where thee problem is, on laptop or router.
