1) make sure some laptops have a on off switch for the internal wireless (yeah weird but some toshibas have em)
2) make sure the router is set to broadcast for wirless.. 2 common problems most people overlook..

and you need to enter the correct wireless key for it to access... a test to see if its the laptop or not try and connect to your router from ur laptop..
