We just bought a Aspire 5100 a few months ago and have not been able to connect to the wireless network at the house. when you try to connect it says connection unsuccessful and when I go into the network and sharing center on the computer it says limited connectivity. but the other wirless computers and devices are working fine and I can connect to other networks outside of the house

Are you MAC filtering on your access point or router?
What are you using for DHCP (Windows ICS or a router)?
How many other DHCP clients are on the network? -
As far as I know the MAC Filtering is not on The router is a Linksys WRT54GS V.5
my other computer that is connected wireless is a HP desktop and the psp and ps2
I also noticed it seems to get stuck when trying to get the IP address and then saiys connection unsuccessful but only on the notbook
The tech person at linksys said i needed to update the driver but It works fine on other wireless networks -

Sounds like it's failing with authentication. Try it with out any security. If successful, setup the WPA again.
