I've been using a Netgear N150 wireless adapter for my PC's internet access, and it's always worked alright , albeit slower than my other devices, until yesterday. I can connect to the router and LAN fine, and with full bars, but it's not connecting to the internet? I haven't been able to find anything about a similar problem, does anyone know how to fix this?

In all likelihood, the N150 has worn out and I have seen this with full bars, but no real connection. However, you need to confirm that you still have internet and that your modem is working. Reboot your modem, and connect to it via a wire to confirm this.

Than take the adapter with a notebook to another location with a different router, and see if it connects. The other thing is to get another WiFi adapter, and to see if it connects to your router.
