With XP pro, then run the network wizard on the laptop to establish the 
full capablity for networking to the internent.  Treat the DSL as a 
network and your two computers as nodes on that network. Be sure to have 
the same work group for both.

Have you run the setup for the router on the laptop.  It may be that the
setup cannot find the port of the router.  BTW, you didn't say which OS 
you are using.  I know that setups with Win 98 are more difficult for 
wireless than Win XP.

I have just added DSL to my PC system and installed a Linksys wireless
router. I also have a laptop that has wireless ability. From the laptop
I can see the router just fine wirelessly but can not log on to the
internet. It says no internet connection available. Do I have to have a
wireless card of some sort in the PC also or does the router take care
of that. The router is connected to the PC on port one. (most of this

over my head but I am learning at a fall over backward rate.)
Thanks Larry
