Some of that sounds like things I tried when I experienced my Netgear
wireless modem failing in the way you described. The only thing that sorted
it, as far as I can tell, was undertaking a hard reset, in particular
ensuring that the reset button was held in for 15+ seconds. When I did the
same for only 5 seconds previously it didn't work.

Can you either borrow another machine with a wireless card to tell whether
it's your computer or not - or - take your basestation somewhere else and
test it with someone else's setup. From your description it's not clear
whether you can connect continuously to your neighbour's network or only see
it.

Longshots I know, but hth. Cheers, Colin.
