and if not...

Turn on the router / gateway see what happens then.
If you go in to start - run - cmd - ipconfig, do you get an IP address? Default gateway?

If you get a default gateway, that means your PC / Laptop is talking to the router.
If you don't, then something else could be preventing it (WEP Key) for example

Try and do:
Start - Run - Cmd - Ipconfig /release (Press enter)
Start - Run - Cmd - Ipconfig /renew (Press enter) - If this fails to work.

Try resetting the TCP/IP.
Start - Run -
netsh int ip reset resetlog.txt (A brief flash of the Command box will appear)
netsh int ip reset c:resetlog.txt (same as above)
Once this is done, restart the PC / Laptop, try and connect again.

If that fails, delete the Winsock keys

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
SYSTEM
CurrentControlSet
Services
Winsock

happened to me a while back and that was what i was told to do...
