    I have the cable router wifi and have connected a Linksys E3000 for a total of three access points. Some how something got changed on the laptop and now it won't connect to anything but one AP on the Linsys. This includes my travel router which I tested out and my Win7 phone on the tether. The troubleshooter suggests I "verify that the wireless adapter in your computer has not been restricted from accessing the radio channels being used by the wireless network." I went into the adapter settings, an Intel Centrino Ultimate 6300-N and made sure everything was at default. I've deleted/re-installed the driver for such THREE times. I'm a bout to go on a trip and there's no point in taking the T430s if it won't connect to an AP other than the one in my house. This is driving me nuts. Help!

    Are you using channels 12 or 13? If that's the case, try set to channel 9 or something lower than 11.
