My laptop will not connect to the internet through the wireless connection. It will connect if I plug it directly to the modem. I have made sure the wireless connection is enabled and I tried the troubleshooting. I have no idea what else to do. I'm not sure if it would be a virus or something since the internet works when connected directly. I posted a hijackthis log but no one responded....

I have never had a problem with the wireless connection until now. It has worked fine since I bought it until now.

any help is greatly appreciated. thanks.
