Hi, I have a wireless router which works fine until yesterday. The
router seems not to be working. It wont allow me to have internet
access, when i direct connect (without using router) it works. What is
wrong with my router ?

What kind of router?

If its a home networking toy, try powering it down and up again.

First, we need more info as to router and client pc, and your
troubleshooting steps so far. More than "it's broke." :')
Guessing: your client is not connecting to the AP. Could be lots of
reasons for that- radio, authentication, yada, yada.
Guessing again that client is Windows pc, have you checked via the
"connection manager" which is an OS sservice? Many Windows pcs have two
choices of such to use- vendor's and MS's. And ... updates are possible
for some vendors' connection managers; some vendors' earlier versions
are really brittle, IME.

Turn your clock back to before yesterday and see if the router works
again.

Nothing. If you plug in with an ethernet cable directly to the router
and it works, then you've tested everything except the wireless
section. My guess(tm) is that it's probably something you did on your
unspecified model laptop or wireless computer. Fix it or remove the
connection profile and start over.
