I did what Montu suggested with no luck. I uninstalled the atheros wifi adapter then reinstalled it. Checked for updates and its up to date. I have damn near tried everything with no luck

Are you sure it's the correct drivers for the wireless card?

Everything I've been reading so far on the internet where it say's it point's to a public and won't let you change networks is because of a driver issue.

it does indeed sound like a driver issue..but lets say its not...have you tried resetting your router? I mean using the reset button you have to use a pen to push (it will kick the router into default settings and you will have to reconfigure)

You have a weird issue my friend..kinda hard to diagnose over the internet.

I had a similar (I think) problem on my HP Win-XP laptop. It would not connect no matter what, out of the blue too. Stupid thing. I went and changed the wireless password and encryption type and all has been well. I don't know why I had to do that, but it fixed it.

2 hours on the phone with tech support and the issues is now resolved. I had to turn off the router while on the phone. Deleted some drivers and reinstalled them and had to reset or get new IP address. < Have no clue what that's about. Very long process but fixed now. Then start up modem/ router combo back up. The signal catches in less than a minute and is finally set to home and able to change location. They also did all these damn commands in the command window etc.... < no idea about that either.

Sounds like your wireless network was set as a public network. Windows firewall was probably blocking it. Good to hear you got it fixed.
