    My new Dell inspiron 6400 ( Lovely, thanks Mr. H) has today decided that
    it won't connect to the wireless network, claiming that the connection
    is unavailable. Opening the Dell Wireless Wlan Utility shows the network
    is 'there' but there is a big red X through a picture of the router. Any
    clues?

    DCHP client running on laptop?

    you're right, of course, I was panicking a bit. however the problem has
    been resolved by moving my son's lava lamp which was blocking the signal!
