I'm on my knees begging.
Apparently it's vital that we read reviews of breast pumps and it's also vital that we do it on the laptop not the PC.
The laptop connects to the wireless network (local only) but not to the internet.
Any thoughts would be hugely appreciated and may stop my wife from waking our three day old baby.

turn the wireless router off at the wall. wait 10 seconds. turn it back on again. Restart laptop at the same time. Usually works for me.
1) open window
2) throw laptop out of aforementioned window
3) get some sleep while you can
Has it ever worked?
Does it work wired?
Do you have anything else wireless which works?
Are you getting a sensible IP address? Can you ping the router / google / google's IP address?
What OS?
open the command prompt (start menu, search>cmd and open)
then type ipconfig /release end hit enter, then type ipconfig /renew and hit enter
see if that works
Reboot.
It sounds like your wireless adaptor (or software). Mine does this occassionally - it'll find the router no problem, but it won't connect to it properly to allow me internet access.
I'm on old Windows (not 7) for this so I use control panel to disable, then re-enable the wireless adaptor. That generally sorts it.
You could try shoving a lan cable into the laptop and router......
Cheers guys,
Sanity now reigns once more. Checked it was working wired then rebooted both the laptop and the router at the same time. Result!
