seriously though, what router do you have? Is in running 802.11b/g/n? What type of encryption are you using? Can you take your device to a store or place to eat where they have WiFi and use it there? Do you have MAC address filtration enabled on the router?

I Used It On This Network For A Long Time Then It Started Acting Like This

So it still could be anything, your network setting for your home network could be corrupted. Have you deleted the connection and tried to set it back up. What other devices in the home work wirelessly? Are things set to DHCP or statically assigned because you could essentially be getting the same IP on the PPC that you already have assigned to your laptop or something else. Did you check and make sure the MAC filtration isnt enabled? You never did tell us if you can take your PPC somewhere else and connect with it there. So we really still do not know if it is in the router at home or the PPC itself. Youve got some homework to do.
