I would start by checking that the USB socket is working -- try a memory stick or whatever.

 

If working, see if you can detect ANY wifi networks (assuming you have neighbours).

 

If so, access the router via an ethernet cable. Once in the user interface check that wireless is turned on, that SSID is not hidden, access list is off -- and temporarily turn off wireless encryption.

 


If you don't have a network socket on your computer I would urge you to add one as they are cheap and essential to network troubleshooting.

Make sure that the computer's wireless adapter is set to a wireless mode which includes the mode use by the access point -- 11g, b, n etc
