if your using encryption make sure you have the same key on both client and router and preferably used WPA-PSK instead of WEP.

can your client see the SSID of the router.

its not a case of knowing the settings, more like knowing where your going wrong. most of these should work out the box.

Also make sure a personel firewall is not blocking the connection?

do you get a DHCP address? if you do then your talking to the routter, if not then you have a connection prob bwtween the two.

run the diagnostics on the router, see if it brings up anything

what ADSL modem are you connected to if any?

install firefox and see, could be that port 80 is being blocked by firewall or that the application is blocked
