I think you are trying to connect to the wireless network on a windows XP computer. The security on the wireless network must be WEP.

In this case you can remove the list of preferred networks on the computer.
Add the network manually.
If this is the only wireless computer then change the wireless settings of the router.

I think there might be lost in the packet sending.
You said the PC is still connected to the network but not able to go online.
Is there any other wireless computer which is able to go online wirelessly and working fine.
If yes then try to uninstall and reinstall the adapter.
If not then check the router wireless settings.

Connect the computer to LAN port one of the router using an Ethernet cable, access the configuration page (ie 192.168.1.254), configure the router as Dynamic IP, Configure the wireless network as (WEP or WPA), Check the IP address of the WAN section.

Note: If you have an IP address to the WAN section the Internet connection is working, Connect through the wireless network by finding the wireless network name was been created to the router.
