'selected networked uses an access control list to restrict access and this computer is not on the list, see administrator for access.'

i can find no settings to do change this on my other MAC which is my primary computer - also connected wirelessly - running os 10.4.10

That usually just means you didn't press the 1 button on the livebox so it was in pairing mode (antenna light flashing).

I have a similar problem. I just got my Mom and new laptop (windows) and I connected it to my livebox wirelessly, but after doing that i can no longer connect with my macbook Crying or Very sad

When I click on the name of my livebox in the airport drop down menu it just comes up with the message "There was an error joining the airport network Livebox-XXXX"

I have tried going through the bramley apple guide thingy, which i did when i first got my MAC, and it worked then, but now it doesnt.

Please help. Im reaching breaking point.

Did you change any settings on the livebox to get the PC to work?
Try deleting the saved network Livebox - xxxx (preferences --> network --> configure, re-entering the WEP key and put the livebox in pairing mode again (button 1) before clicking connect. Macs are clever they generally detect the right security settings.
