Wireless issue

My wireless is playing up somewhat. Laptop wireless status says "local access only" I have tried rebooting and resetting the router but no joy. Problem is I know it's a laptop problem as my iPod touch is connected with no problems whatsoever. The vista repair options are not working either. Help!

  • Interesting. You seemed to have covered most angles. Does it still connect anyway?

    How about deleting the wireless connection altogether and then creating a new one with the same settings?

    Apologies for the delay. I had to disable and then enable through advanced settings. Weird!
