Ok, I have a laptop that has wifi. I have a wireless D-link router at my modem. For ages before today the laptop has worked and given me internet connection. However we moved things around yesterday and had to unconnect the modem and everything. Now, the laptop says it has a succesful connection with the signal, but it doesnt access the internet at all. There is a little lock on the recieving side of the signal. I tried leaving the laptop on and resetting the modem and the router, but nope. The internet works just fine on the other computers. Its a pretty basic router and it pretty much does everything automatically. I tried disabling the wifi adapter for a few minutes and i also rebooted the laptop after i reset the modem and the D-link. Any ideas?

EDIT: Also my Internet Wii can't connect to internet or any of it's online services so I'm assuming it's the router.
