Cannot access web or pop servers.

I have had this WiFi laptop for a few months now. Works perfectly at home. I also take it on the road with me. If I can find a wireless connection it is a great help to be able to access certain spares and tech info sites that I use in the course of my business. Often the networks are in the customers house and if they are unprotected I do advise them to take steps to rectify this. With their permission I have always been able to connect to their router and access web etc.
Today I was in a house and my PC could 'see' five networks, two of which where open. I identified the one belonging to this customer and connected. Windows reports 'connected' with very good signal strength but for some reason I could not access Internet or Pop 3 servers. Wireless Connection Status appears to have no problems.

Is there something simple that I am missing or that I need to alter for certain networks.?
