1. Make sure the wireless NIC does not have a static address.
2. Does the laptop see the router SSID? You can find this on the back of the router.
3. If your PC does not see the SSID the wireless may be turned off on the router.
4. When attempting to connect to your router, use the SSID and Security Key found on a sticker that has the router information. Some of the older routers had this on a seperate white sticker.
