Hello. I just got the new Dell Inspiron Mini 10 laptop and I'm trying to set up my internet connection. I have a Sony Vaio Desktop that uses a modem from AT&T and a Netgear WPN824 Wireless Router.
I followed the laptop's instruction manual to set up the internet, and everything was going fine until I had to insert my flash drive into my wireless router. There isn't a USB port on my router. So I clicked on the bars on the bottom right corner of the laptop to click on a wireless connection because it gave me the option too. I clicked the NETGEAR connection and nothing happened. So then I reinstalled Netgear and created a password to access. I tried connecting to NETGEAR again and gave the password but still nothing happened. Then I noticed the "wireless" light isn't lit on the front of the router. However, there's internet access on my Wii and brothers' iPod touches through Netgear.
What am I doing wrong??
