laptop problem…stuck on obtaining IP addresse??

by zwollf . Updated 15 years, 3 months ago

I have been searching for days on how to fix my laptop…its a Dell vostro 1000 and I have been connected wirelessly to a friends router prior to this….but suddenly when i go to connect to my new router, it shows the connection, ( Ive entered the router into my wirless thingie) it gets stuck on obtaining IP addresse and wont go further.
Ive disabled any and all firewalls so theres no conflict there…Ive tried changing the setting to Open on the router setting that i added, even disabled other connections that were showing up on my wireless options…and still the same thing

If someone has some advice, it would be greattttly appreciated. Im running windows xp home if that helps.!
