Ping the NIC @ 127.0.0.1 and let's start eliminating one thing at a time.  Post back the results.

Well, I did what you said and here are the results:

"Reply from 127.0.0.1:bytes=32 time<1ms TTL=128"

This shows up four times, identical.

Then:

Ping statistics for 127.0.0.1: Packets: Sent=4, Received=4, Lost=0<0% Loss>,

approximate round trip times in milli-seconds:

Minimum=0ms, Maximum=0ms, Average=0ms

 

I have absolutely NO idea what in the world all of this means!  :-)

 

Thanks for all of your help, I found the problem. When I reinstalled the software for the Network adapter, for some reason the driver did not reload. I just reloaded it and it immediately picked up on the wireless network.

Thanks again for taking the time!

That's good news.  What you did was to confirm that the NIC was working properly.
