Hello monmill. A most frequent cause of blocking Internet access is Anti-Virus / Firewall / Spam Blocking software that has blocked Internet access for security reasons. One way to test this idea is to turn it all off temporarily to see if access is restored. Then configure the security software to allow access to the Internet.
Cheers!

Have you tried it unencrypted? Perhaps your router is using en encryption type not supported by your laptop. Did you make sure that the encryption settings match?
