BT Broadband help

Hi

On friday my broadband went down, I phoned bt help line and the automated reply did state that my area code was having problems. Anyway I phoned them up again and they then said there was no reported problems and an engineer would check it out within 5 days!!!!
I have now just checked the line direct to the pc and can now get on the internet, however my wireless will not detect the signal ( Apple airport express)
I really dont know what to do, Ihave checked the airport with a friends broadband and its fine so I know its not faulty!


Any help would really be appreciated
