The wireless connection icon on the taskbar is yellow, it allows me to enter the wep key to unlock the connection, but when i try to connect it says "unable to connect to BELL189"
The reason internet is not working may be because the Ethernet driver was not installed onto your computer, XP does not install that driver by default during the installation.
You always have a CD of Ethernet Driver that helps connecting to internet, it may even be possible that your LAN card's not working properly and needs maintenance or replacement.
You started another thread on the wireless connection issue. Either continue that thread, or have them merged. Trying to resolve the same problem in two places causes confusion.
