Network Connection Problem

I have a Inspiron 350 and the Router is NETGEAR G-Wireless WGR61v10.

My problem is since I had a reformat on the computer. It would not connect to the internet in fact it said Local or limited connection before I changed the channel where now lets me go on Google and surf is very limited and very slow.

I can't log into my programs like MSN and Skype and only logs in when I restart the computer and drops the connection again. I would like to know how to unblock the connection so I can do everything again.

I am just really frustrated and would like to know if there is a solution to get the net up and running again.

Thank you very much for taking the time to view this.

Oh yeah, I would like to add, Update, MSN and Skype do not even read as connected. They don't even stay connected long either. Updating antivirus is hard when it does not see my computer having net always brings me to troubleshoot and has not helped.

I really hope someone can help me please and thank you so much.

Open a command prompt and type the following without the quotes and paste the results back here, "ipconfig /all".

Try re-installing the network adapter's driver.
