when i got the router, i turned off my modem and desktop. Connected the router to the modem and hooked up port 4 on my desktop. i turned on the modem first, then turned on the router, then turned on the desktop. i clicked on IE and typed the address of the router. after that, i did the setup and changed the pw. i also recall clicking "test" and "apply." after all that, i exited IE and then went to network places/properties/TCP/IP/properties/dectect IP automatically/ok.

That's all i've done to the desktop. My desktop is running Ok. i have internet. My brother's laptop however, does not have internet access. i went to control panel on his laptop, click on the wireless icon, and entered the correct SSID. I tried going online after but failed. i clicked "view wireless internet access" but nothing comes up. isn't there an icon that should show up with the netgear ssid or something?

Please let me know on what i can do.
