Are you using WEP encryption? If so, use the Hex key, not the ASCII
key.
Are you using WPA encryption? If so, watch your spelling and typing.
Did you get an IP address from the unspecified model "gateway"? Run:
start -> run -> cmd <enter>
IPCONFIG <enter>
- If the IP address is 0.0.0.0, wait a while longer.
- If it's 169.254.xxx.xxx, DHCP failed, probably because of encryption
key exchange problem.
- If it's 192.168.xxx.xxx, it's probably working and something else is
wrong.

It might be Norton's firewall. Norton should not prevent you from
obtaining an IP address via DHCP (see above), but will prevent you
from pinging anything. Try turning off "Norton Internet Security"
until it works.

Perhaps burnt offerings to the radio gods?
