I recently restored my Acer Aspire 5315 Laptop to Factory Restore and now I cannot get my laptop to connect to my wireless router which is a Netgear RangeMax Dual Band Wireless N Gigabit Router. I have reset the router by unplugging my modem and router for 30 seconds and it didn't help. I went to Barnes and Noble to see if it would get on wirelessly there and it would. I went to best buy to see if they could help me and they got on wirelessly there fine. Can someone please tell me if my configuration on my laptop is wrong. My wireless name shows up and says it has excellent signal but it will only give me local access and it will not let me get online. I went and downloaded all the drivers from Acer.com for my model laptop although I didn't know which ones I needed so I downloaded all of them. Nothing works. I called my Router company Netgear and they wanted to charge me 70.00 just to help me. I hung up on them. Please HELP!! I have Windows Vista Home Basic on my laptop
