Hi,
We recently bought a Netgear router for wireless internet browsing. Being a beginner with the concept of wireless though, I've no idea how to set up my laptop to do this. Another computer (a Mac) in our house has been set up and is working fine with the router, I'm just clueless how to set this one up! I realise that what I've said is probably vague but I'll try and answer any other questions you have, I just need some help!

Thanks in advance!
