I am using a Frisbee Wireless network, with Win XP (SP2). I have an ADSL
router which connects to the wireless base station. It used to work, but
has stopped recently, for no reason which is apparent to me.

Network set-up:

ADSL router is 192.168.0.1
Wireless base station is 192.168.0.2
the IP address used by the card is 192.168.0.10

I can ping all three addresses when I am on the wired connection; when I
plug in the card it shows me 100% connectivity (Signal Strength and Link
Quality). I have set up the network connection on my computer to use the
following tcp/ip settings:

USe following IP Address: 192.168.0.10
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
Default gateway: 192.168.0.1

Preferred DNS Server 192.168.0.1

I have tried turning off the firewall (McAfee) but to no avail. I have
switched off the Windows firewaal on the network connections.

Any thoughts where else I could look would be most appreciated!

Try this: Open the TCP/IP properties of the connection, General tab,
Advanced properties, Options tab, TCP/IP filtering properties, check
Enable, select Permit All for all three entries, apply, then uncheck
Enable. See if that helps.
