I have a older PC with windows ME for my daughter. I made it wirless but adding a linksys adapter on the the hardrive. It's been working fine for months with the occasional "cannot connect". But it's been a week now and it says it can find the access point and is connected but can not find internet. My signal is strong. It says it's connected but it's not. I can't even bring up the browser not working page on the explorer screen it is blank. I am wondering if it's the explorer program and not the WiFi that I'm having issues with?

Any ideas?

Did you try running winipcfg to check the IP address?
