Default Connecting to Net w/ IE 6

I've had a wireless router that's been working well for years. It still is,
but with only 1 of our laptops. I recently got back from a biz trip where my
card worked well w/ the hotel network. However, while it picks up an
Excellent signal from the router, I cannot connect to the Net. I'm also
having problems when I click on Detect Proxy Settings-it won't seem to work.
I've tried repairing the connection, but it continually reports it's unable
to do so. It's not the card, because I tried the card in my wife's laptop
and it works fine. Help please!
Thanks in advance.

What are your wireless settings? Set to Obtain anIP automatically?

Do you require a proxy?

Can you manually set the IP address and DNS server (router address) and
connect?

What do IPconfig show?

Have you flushed the DNS cache?
