On my home network, I have to power-cycle the router/access point to clear
that issue.

I also found out that my ip address is 162 instead of teh normal 192. I tried connecting to the router through lan and succeded. But wireless still doesnt work.

An IP address beginning with "169..." indicates DHCP (usually a router
function) is not assigning an address. Do as Sinner suggested - turn router
(and modem if used) off for a few minutes. IP address should be in "192..."
range.

Hi
Check/adjust the Wireless from scratch.
Disable the security in the Wireless Router, and make sure that the Wireless
card is configured correctly.
