I believe your problem is the network key, you changed it most likely.
And you are now locked out of the network. The "key" in your computer must
match the "key" in the access point (wireless router). WEP is a security
protocol that runs on the wireless link. The 169 number tells me your wireless adapter can not create a link between it and the wireless router. So you
are not connected. You'll need to get the "key" from the wireless router.
Try entering 192.168.0.1 (that a guess on my part as to the number,
generally this is the gateway address) as a web address on your desktop and look
at the security settings in the wireless router.
Or else, restart the router and try to connect it again.. Anyone of this should work
Make sure that your computer is able to go online through the modem. If your computer is not able to go online through the modem then you will need to call ISP first. If your computer is able to go online through the modem then you need to connect the computer to the router and the modem to the router. open the set up page of the router and change the settings of the router according to the ISP.
You need to "fool" your cable box into thinking that the wireless router is the computer. This just means that the modem is locking into the first ip address it can get... it tends to block out all others. Here's how to remedy and allow everything to get access...
1 Shut off computers, routers, everything. 2. Turn on your wireless router FIRST... leave everything else off until you see it's completely booted. 3. Then with the cable connected to the modem/cable box and the router, turn on the cable box/modem and let it cycle up. This should allow the cable modem to "find" the wifi ip address as the main ip. After that, turn on any other routers, and the computers... This should allow you access to the net by any of your computers because the wifi router should give all the other comptuers and routers on the system inddividual ip addresses and all should be well... Give it a try and let me know! K

You wireless router/access point can host several simultaneous connections to the internet. Just connect your laptop to the wireless network as you would from your desktop computer.
Router is not going to work as repeater it will work as an access point but you still have to run a cat 5 cable from your internet source to router.You are better of getting an actual repeater.
