[SOLVED] Limited connectivity issue

[ukilledthecat]

I came back from vacation to find my laptop could connect to the wireless network, but not function.

I spent the better half of today trying EXTENSIVELY AND EXHAUSTINGLY trying every possible troubleshoot and fix I could think of, that I could find in help files with networking, with my router, with my computer. I've tried everything I could find on the web in forums like these to no avail.

It is with desperation that I request the aid of my favorite pull-through tech forum.

I'm able to connect to my router with a wire, but wireless is a no-go. I've literally tried everything and now I'm not sure if I made things better or worse. So, to seek some clear perspective, I submit to you:

What should I do from here?

I've resolved the issue.

Seems that when I was working with the wireless features on my digital camera, I changed the encryption key on my laptop to the router passphrase, not the actual hex key.
