sorry....I am new...and not particularly up to speed on wireless networking.

 

I have a standard dell computer running XP and hooked into a wireless linksys router that then goes to a cable modem out to the internet....it is what I am typing this message on.

 

I just bought a internal wireless enabled Inspirion 2200.  I want to 'connect' the laptop to the linksys wireless router.

 

I know the wireless network works because I have a Tivo set top box that is wireless connected to the linksys to get the Tivo updates. 

 

The Inspirion 2200 sees the network, but for some reason can't connect to it.

 

I don't even know where to begin as to how to fix this??? any advice would be helpful

 

thanks
