Through router although it is on and internet light is on, how do i get wifi to turn on? thanks Miracle Mary
You need to configure the wireless settings
connect to your router using a cable and then go to your browser to 192.168.1.1
go to wireless and setup your wireless network settings

Hello....sudden loss of wireless on two computers, in the same home, may indicate that a powerful source of wireless interference has just arrived (since your wireless router light is still on).
1) Does the signal improve if you move the router, or move the laptop closer to the router?
2) Have you had any success with changing the channel on your router? (Login to router > select Wireless Settings > Channel)
If you have not moved furniture yourself, or installed a device which could interfere with the signal (eg a DECT phone), it's possible a neighbour's new router may be the culprit.
Please come back to Fixya if this does not help.

Make sure your desktop doesn't have static IP address. Go to Network Connections, Properties of Local Area Connection, Internet Protocol > Properties. Select Obtain IP Address Automatically and Obtain DNS Servers Automatically. Apply the changes and restart the computer.

There can be a few solutions to this.
First off, assuming you are using a standard cable/DSL home (dynamic) IP configuration for an internet connection, be sure to power off (unplug)your modem and router for at least 2 minutes, then plug them back in (if it is a cable modem, undo the cable connection as well), When you plug them back in, be sure to plug in the modem first, and wait until all lights stop blinking (maybe another 2 minutes) before you power on your router again.
Logon to the router status or basic setting page and make sure it is seeing DNS servers that are not part of your local network. And that it has an IP address.
Also, if your router is running a DHCP server, be sure the timeout is set for a nice long itme, say 7-8 days.
If it's still not working get back to me.

I am having exactly the same problem. It occurred on Sunday 17th. I have phoned Optus who seem unable to work out what has happened. It will work wirelessly but not recognise it when set up via ethernet cable.
Had same problem - said signal weak although strong on other devices, and hung on authenticating.
Cordless phone on base unit was beside wireless router. Moved unit and turned off phone. Problem disappeared, and signal showed strong.
