Wireless connections are inherently more flaky and less stable than their wired counterparts. In your case, your configuration is probably okay since you were able to browse the internet before. I would suggest you try the following:

- Try cycling your router (the wireless access point) and modem (turning them off then on again);

- Turn off the laptop's built in Wi-Fi, then turn it on again;

- Try moving your laptop closer to the wireless access point.
