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.
