Ok, Guys, i have a BIG problem. I rescently got a new laptop:model ADVENT 5312 running windows vista and i want to connect it to my netgear router modem thing, I dunno what make it is, so ill just put in all the info on the box: 108Mpbs Rangemax ADSL Modem Wireless Router with 4 port 10/100mbps switch dg834pn. Ok so, onto the problem: i get my laptop shove an ethernet cable and it works fine with it in, i try connect it wirelessly, and it all goes wrong. It knows the network is there, it just cannot connect to the router. I also have my ps3 and the family desktop pc are connected with ethernet cables, but the whole point of getting a laptop was to be wireless. So, miscellaneous info: my isp is AOL, and i do have broadband, also, well, i mean my dad, who got the router, got a disk for the router, should i install this on the laptop,i use a thing called driver sentry that came with the laptop, pre-installed, and i got it from currys(UK). Wow, that was a lot to fit in, so, any help would be awesome.
Cheers
Jamie

Please get back with more data afhter you checked this.

Netgear Rangemax
I recently installed a rangemax wireless router and had identical problems which was about to make me a candidate for the funny farm until I shut down the whole system AND physically disconnected the broadband modem from the incoming line. Now it works fine.
