Hi, it sounds to me like a server problem not a wireless problem. Do you
have a PC using the same internet provider that you can test it out on?
If the BN says connected then it doesn't seem like a wireless problem to
me. I got similar messages when one of my email accounts was playing up
and it turned out that they changed what we needed to use as our user
name without telling us and at that time my mum was having problems as
well but we could still use the internet just not receive mail.
Hope this helps,
From Shaz.

Subject: [Braillenote] Wireless suddenly not working
Hi, all. I have a situation I've never had before, and I'd like
to know if
anyone has had a similar situation and how you fixed it. I've
always been
able to connect wirelessly here at home. But this morning, and
now tonight,
I can't. I insert the card (an Ambicom card), and it's
recognized. I go to
the connections menu, choose wireless, scan for a connection, and
see my
home connection, which I created a long time ago. I hit enter
and it says
connecting, and then connected. The signal strength is around
minus 29 or
minus 30, as I recall. The BN is in the same place it always is
when I do
wireless. But when I try to retrieve e-mail, I get an error
connecting to
pop server, and I get a cannot find server message when I try to
use the
web. Even though I didn't think it would fix it, I did a reset,
just to see
what would happen, and I was right: the wireless card still
doesn't work.
I'll need to have my husband check and make sure the router and
everything
is connected correctly, but I'm sure it must be, or I wouldn't
pick up my
wireless connection, would I? I wonder if my card is failing.
If so, I may
need to know where to get a new one, as I thought some of you
said they're
harder to come by.
