My laptop has just had SP2 installed.

Before this event it connected by wireless to a BT Home Hub.

Although it sees the computer sees the hub it cannot cionnect to the
internet. It can connect via cable. The hub has WEP encryption.

Can anyone please advise how to overcome this problem.

Many thanks

Reenter the encryption key on the computer.

Consider going to WPA encryption. WEP is easily hacked, I am told (I've
never tried).

check if your computer settings have the option of obtaining the i
address automatically.
also on your router under the wireless connection settings check if it
set to statics and your computer set to dynamic.
