limeted or no connectivity

Hello,

my wireless network was unsafe so I tried to make it safe with WEP. Now
something is happening I don't understand: when I start the computer
everything works well, but after a while I loose the connection to the
internet and get the message "limited or no connectivity". If I restart
everything is alright for a while until it happens again. I need to sort
this problem out because is driving me insane...When I click on error
details I get that the ip doesn't belong into the network.
The network connects three notebooks and when I have limited connectivity I
cannot access the other two laptops from my notebook. From the other two
notebooks you can't access me either.
I think the WEP key I gave in is causing all this trouble, so I am trying to
get rid of it, but I don't know how to do it. Can someone help?

Probably the first, best thing to do is reset the router back to factory
defaults. The process will vary from router to router so check the manual
and/or the manufacturer's Web site for details on how to do this. Once you
have done that you can enter a new WEP key in the router, then in each PC
that connects to it.
