This morn I wake up, switch on my modem, which activates alright only to find that my lap will just not connect. The modems online but my lap just would'nt connect.
I re-type my password, turn off my firewalls, not a chance. And mind you I was online till 4 this morning.
Then on a whim I just type in my old password. Sumthing I hadn't been using for almost a month now, and whadya know it connects.
So could anyone tell me what this means? Barely last month I requested and Etisalat gave me a new pass, after the old one just stopped working. What's happening here?

That's alrit. But why did the pass change in the first place?
Has this something to do with my network authentication which is WPA2-PSK ?

Your talking about your wireless router's password.
Sometimes, when you change the password and click save, the router still uses the old password until your actually restart it (shut off, then switch on) to take the new password into affect.
So this looks like the case for you.
-You changed the password, clicked save.
But you did not restart your laptop.
So your laptop was still connected to the router using the old password.
just until you restarted the router, an dhad to put the new password on the laptop for it to connect and work again.
This is normal.
