MacBook Air won't connect to wifi - tried everything

Suddenly my MacBook air, which I purchased in January, won't connect to wifi. I was using it and it just stopped, although it says it's connected. I have had this happen other places but not at home. My router works. I tried restarting everything, deleting and readding the network, renewing the lease ... Everything. I am about to scream. PLEASE someone tell me how to fix this. This is totally unacceptable.

MacBook Air, iOS 5.1.1

At this point I am reinstalling Lion. I did what apple/another person said to do by deleting the system config file, shutting down and pressing certain keys (I'm so flustered I can't remember what they were) until it prompted me to "reinstall utilities." I am new to Mac so I have no idea which option to choose... If I reinstall a new version am I losing everything on my computer??
