Believe it or not, I resolved the problem in a very simple way. Although, XP has your passphrase / WEP key stored, you assume that's not the problem when it's trying to renew your IP address. But if you just reenter it and verify it. Boom! Back up and running. XP seems to forget to ask for this reauthorization.
