Confused broadcom 802.11 wireless lan and possible overheat

Hiya,

My dell inspiron laptop is overheating at the battery at times and giving error #m1004.
Also the broadcom wireless 802.11 wireless lan is not working (I use a linksys broadband router). When I try to link it up unwirelessly I am asked for a password which was never set up , so i try a random one or leaving it blank and then does nothing. Also at times the shortcut for wireless on my laptop says there is no radio signal.

The internet works fine on my other computer unwirelessly.

I checked out other posts who had had the same problem and ran speedfan.
the results are as follows: (I could not find any voltage results on speedfan)

with no programs running: temp1 41'
HDO 33C
DMM 41c
cpu 64c
GPU 41c
fAN SPEED 2730 rpm

with 2 programs running: all the same as above except CPU 70C
fan speed 4320 rpm

Whatever you suggest I will do, I'm desperate!
thanks
mila
