Can't connect to locked wireless even though I have the passcode

I have been connected to my own wireless internet just yesterday and was asked to give my passkey. Today however the iPhone only puts a tick next to my wireless network after I entered the passcode but doesn't actually connect (the wireless symbol does not appear at the top).
Can anyone help me?

is your wifi turned on in your iphone settings?
 
I've been getting this too (3GS).

It puts a tick next to my wifi, I open Remote and then it spends it's time saying it couldn't activate remote cos im not connected to a wifi network and, sure enough, I still have the 3G logo in my title bar.

So what did you do?!!!!
 
do you have mac (not the apple product) turned on on your router? or do you have IP addresses setup?

i set my iPhone to grab a certain IP address, but when I got to a friends house, it wont connect so I have to choose automatic settings
 
Ok... this is weird.. it's working now as if nothing ever happened and I didn't do anything (but have been trying to get it to work for hours now).
So just in case this happens again...
1. How do you assign an IP address?
2. How do you choose the address?
3. And what do you do with all the other info the phone wants to know in order to connect? i.e. Subnet Mask, Router, DNS etc...
