Wireless network

I had the same issue... I was getting mad. Even I was able to get connected
in other wireless devices except mine.

I always got an "Unidentified network - Local Access Only" message with my
WRT54G Linksys wireless router. I tested everything you can imagine, but the
final solution was... buy a new router. And now, everything works perfect.

If using static IP, can you can connect to the Internet? This search result may help too,

How can I see if someone has "hacked" onto my network.

look at your network map?

I have looked there-but it doesn't even show my roomates computer on it. She
could be in the same room as me logged onto it and it won't show up, it just
shows mine

That's a pretty vague question but if you go into your router's
configuration screen it will show the machines which are connected.
Refer to your router manual for how to do this.

if she has XP, she will need a hotfix for hers to show up in your map

I have a building next to my work and it has DSL. I try to hook up to the
wireless internet which shows up on my vista laptop, but it says there is a
problem connecting to the wireless network.
