    I assume you mean a site that can guide you though it? If so I doubt you'll find a site about it. Although I'm sure people have wirtten short guides. It's a fairly simple task. It's virtually the same as with a wired network. The only diffrence is you don't run cords and windows will popup an extra screen to make you pick which connection to connect too. It's fairly simple. Anyone who has networked with a wired NIC won't have any trouble networking wireless NIC's.

    If you are having trouble it's more then likely because something is blocking the signal. Microwaves are known to cause problems. Of course they only cause problems when running. So if the computer isn't seeing the signal you can bet it's because there is something blocking you. Remember, you can't go through everything, brick walls and books (books shelves) pretty much stop the signal cold.
