I have a dell 700m.

My wireless has been fine...my wife has a wireless router, and I set up an encrypted network, and have been ok for months. All of a sudden, while it still says I am connected, and that the signal strength is excellent, I cannot surf the net, or e-mail. It's as if I am not connected.

I tried renewing and releasing my IP, and heres what it says:
Ethernet adapter DANNY:
Media State........Media Disconnected

But it lists my IP and domain fine...so what does media disconnected mean ? There are no wires, so does that mean theres an internal problem ?

Thanks.
