You need DHCP on this network or you should set IP settings manualy:

Sorry, now I realized that is a tablet.

First check your router and if everything are OK you should do what als315 wrote

The wireless connection to a working connection says excellent.  The android phone I am on and the homeowners apple desktop are connecting fine.  I will do that DHCP process.  Thanks.

I am not sure what led to the success, but we are finally connected.  Although signal strength was excellent, I disconnected and tried to connect to another non encrypted network, which did not connect.  I then tried our network again, got excellent ss again, and although there was one tab with web page not found, somehow I was able to connect to amazon successfully.
