Network & Sharing Center no Options & no connection

Ok I am kind of stumped. I am running Vista Business x32 on my laptop, using wireless, & last night everything on my laptop was working fine, and then this morning my wife says she cannot connect to the internet. I go and search for connections, 5 found including my router > hit connect and get a pop up cannot connect, > Diagnose > but still no luck (problem still exists).

So I open up the Network & Sharing Center only to find that it is blank. No network location (public/private), no sharing options, nothing. I noticed that there was an update last night so I system restored back to Monday, but still same problem. I am stumped.

Attached is an image of my Network & Sharing Center. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks! Oh and my 2 other desktops are connecting fine (a Vista and a Win7).

Edit: I connected the laptop via Ethernet cable and all works fine! Must have something to do with the Wifi. Checked network connections and Wireless Network Connection just says attempting to authenticate...WHAT NOW?
