eddie17, for complete clarity since you do not state this categorically, is the problem which you have to do with the wireless side of your router.

What wireless pc are you trying to connect to and what type of device does it have ie is a laptop or desktop with pci, usb or pcmcia.

Really need to know as much as possible regarding your set up, otherwise it is going to be difficult for anyone to provide meaningful pointers to you.

Cheers
