[Josh]

Have you changed any settings on your router?

[Judas]

ok i just went into the router settings thing by putting the ip address in the address bar and for some reason the access point was set to disabled so i enabled it, now the router shows up on my laptop but i still cant connect to it :S

you've prob set your router so it wont show up on any other devices lke laptop etc and it'll only work on the computer its plugged into, check out the routers settings

[Deak]

check your router settings, turn off the whole power supply to the router and try again if all fails re-install the router to your computer
