Internet Explorer doesn't recognize wireless connection

My laptop connected to a wireless network. I
started Internet Explorer it tried to dial up. When
I closed the dial up window it changed IE to "work
offline" Internet option is set to "dial if no connection
is present." Internte connection shows that I am connected
to the wireless connection.

What next?

rw

Uncheck the dial option.

Are you by chance trying to access it through a hotel network?

Make sure you're actually connected; e.g., with 'ping'. Windows is just
telling you that you're associated -- it may not be a connection that
goes anywhere, the usual problem being DHCP failure.
