wireless network help with wodpws XP home

[slam7211]

OK 2 years ago we got a linksys wireless router up until now I have had
no problems what so ever enev after SP2. I had to re load windows
yesterday the computer boots up after that and windows says there is
limited or no conncectivity to our network, (im siting in the same room
as our router) but if I connect to my neighbor's network it works fine
My dad's laptop works fine on the wireless network
also if I directly connect my laptop and the router with a wire it
works fine what's wrong is it windows??

If you reloaded Windows on the computer, you're going to have to setup the WiFi
client again. Hoping that the router has WPA (or at least WEP), you're going to
have to reset the authentication.

Look at your Dad's laptop, and see how his WiFi client is setup.
