Wi-Fi Problems with Asus 730W

I've had my new 730w since just before Christmas. Overall, I really like it. I've gotten over the short battery life, the sporadic need to soft reset, and my struggle finding a BT Keyboard that works with it. Surely the VGA Screen and the Landscape Mode overshadows these shortcomings.

However this Wi-Fi thing is really bugging me. When I first got it, and turned on Wi-fi in my house. It saw the SMC Wireless router right away and I was surfin'! But then I went out in the world and started looking for various other places I could get on line. I started using that WiFi Graph program by Kasuei Consulting and saw lots of networks out there. However, In my attempts to get on line somehow my settings must have gotten screwed up. So now, back at home, I can no longer get on line. I CONNECT to the networks (the Icon at the top says connected and in WiFi configuration it says connected) however when I go to Internet Explorer, I get a message that says something like "the page you are trying to view cannot be found." The same thing happens at my parents house. :? :? I CONNECT, but I can't do anything.
I poked around a bit on these forums and I'm thinking my problem might have something to do with "SSID's" and that the Asus utility doesn't handle these very well. Does this make any sense? Help.

Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
