is this a new router provided by sky or a old one you had,
if it is a new router make sure the cable thingy is in the socket labelled DSL not the ones labelled 1-5. If it is the sockets labelled 1-5 it will say it is connected but not work (same as what you are experiencing) put it in the DSL socket.
If this does not work try playing around with the router and if things are not resolved reinstall all sky and wireless apps.

are you using the same router with your desktop pc or whatever you are using now.
If you are, it works on one pc, it might be the laptop

I sent the laptop to a computer shop around the corner from me, he took a look at it and said that the laptop needs to be wiped off and re-loaded on.

Probably He's right. You need to backup all your important data on an external media, and let him format it, and reinstall windows Vista from scratch. Don't forget to install SP1 as well.

Or even better, use vLite and integrate SP1 in your Vista installation itself.

Good that its working.
One rule to remember. If nothing else solves the problem, its time to reinstall Windows.
