    I have a Acer 5100 with Vista Home Premium
    I use a NETGEAR router at my desktop so I can wirelessly connects to the internet.

    I set up my network just fine.
    My laptop finds the network identifies it and connect to the internet.

    Problem: :confused:
    When I close my laptop it hibernates. Then when I open it, my laptop wont identify my network again.
    It finds the network, but it cant aquire the ip address again.

    Am I missing something when I set up my network?

    I have gone back to my desktop and renamed the network and reset it, and it works fine. But then the same problem happens when i restart my laptop.
