I am having D-Link 514 Wireless Router. If I use an ethernet cable between
the Router and my lapto, I am able to connect to Internet. If I use a
wireless card, Netgear B in this case, I am not able to connect to Internet.
Do I need to change any settings? Pl. Thanks.

Sree..

Did you configure your laptop's wireless settings to match those on the
router? Make sure you assign at least a WEP key, or WPA if your router
and laptop offer that.

Thanks Malke,

When I tried to configure WEP, I noticed that there is no check mark on let
Windows configure your wireless settings. So, I checked there and it started
working. Thanks for the advice.
