Now that IS interesting......I had this problem a few times with exactly the same laptop. I tried a whole load of forums but nobody had any clue why it would be able to send data but not receive. I also eventually had to do endless system restores until it started working again for no reason. In fact I did a system restore and it still wouldn't work. I then UNDID the system restore and it worked! Go figure.
Are you using eDonkey by any chance? The problem started twice when I was using it although why that program would cause it to happen I don't know. One of two people thought maybe the router was getting overloaded with data being downloaded. So, update the firmware on your router (should you have one, and be VERY careful come back and ask for help if you need it) and update the driver for your wireless modem from the downloads section of www.vaio-link.com. Touch wood the problem never happened again, although to be safe I haven't touched eDonkey since so that's maybe why.

Turn off the in built firewall and use Zonealarm.
