Having difficulty connecting to wireless network! Pls help!

I have the Inspiron 700m with the 2200 b/g wireless network card. I've never had any problems prior to tonight (although my connection was always extremely low). I have a D-Link router. Anyways, whenever I attempt to connect I always get the message "low or no connectivity." I've rebooted/restored my computer and I've also called the support system and am sad to say that I haven't gotten the help I need. Can someone please help me? Any suggestions/ideas? I really need to have my notebook working in time for my class on Wednesday. I would great appreciate and help I can get.

    I am experiencing the same problem and probably went thru all tipps and tricks which are available (see my thread
    http://forums.us.dell.com/supportforums/board/message?board.id=insp_network&message.id=39444

    The only thing which I havent tried yet is setting the machine to its initial settings by pressing CTRL+F11 on startup. This doesn´t work as I created a new partition in the meantime and the this Dell tool doesn´t work and have no back-up CD. But the Dell support, which went thru a dozen other steps agreed now to send me a new INTEL mini PCI card, which may be faulty. I hope this will solve my problems. )Please notice that a different USB Adapter works fine on my Inspiron)

    I am having problems connecting as well.  I have an inspiron 1150 as well.  I didn't have a problem before and just recently it states that it see a network, but it won't connect.  I bought the Linksys had the router sitting directly in front of the notebook and it continues to search for the network.
