Default Fixed: Windows 7 wifi problems

I am currently having problems with my wireless card in Windows 7 x64 Ultimate.

I am running the RTM for Windows 7, and my wireless card is the Intel 5100.

Last night I was on msn, and then the internet on my laptop went out, and now I cannot connect to any wireless network (neither at home, or at school). I am basically stuck tethering my iPhone to my laptop for internet (which is killer for battery life).

Please help. Windows 7 still recognises the wifi card, except that now, when I connect to a wifi network, it will say that it is an unidentified network with no internet access.

PLEASE HELP!!!! LMAO

I need the wifi to work.

go to the network and sharing center and click on either the yellow ? or !, cant remeber which it is, or the red X. It should give you the option to check for problems. Do that, then you will at least have an idea what is wrong an it maybe may even be able to fix it.

Fixed.

I restarted, didn't work.

I went into the adapter settings, and the DHCP thing was disabled, so I re-enabled it, and now it works -.- (I am an idiot apparently).
