system restore back to a point you were able to connect is the quickest thing I can think of.

click on the wireless icon in your taskbar and
under Related Tasks, choose Change advanced
settings .
Now click on the Wireless Networks tab and select
the network in the list at the bottom. Click on
Properties once you select the wireless network
that is having problems.
Click on the Authentication tab and now uncheck
the Enable IEEE 802.1x authentication for this
network box. If the box was checked, then that was
why you were getting the “unable to find a
certificate to log you on to the network” message
because Windows is looking for one, but your
wireless router is not setup for certificate security.

Go to device manager and remove your wireless driver, restart it'll reinstall it, might work after that?

This.
Might be a good idea to remove the wireless network profile and reconnect.
