I don't even know where to start. To make this simple -

I have a Dell computer running off a Netgear wireless router. One of my sons computer plugs directly in the modem. My other son has a Toshiba satellite lap top. He can't seem to get it to work off the WIFI in this house so he plugs it into the wireless by a cable. Every time my son uses his lap top, my computer goes nuts. Some times I cant get to web pages and when I do, I get to the first page of a site but if I try to get to the second page, I get the message of "this page cannot be displayed." If my son is not using his lap top, my computer works just fine. If my son takes his lap top out of this house, he has no problem connecting using WIFI.

I've battled this problem for months and not until last week did i realize this had something to do with his lap top. Any ideas what I can do to fix this problem? (other than telling him to get off his lap top) Its driving me nuts!

(Go easy on me.... I am not a techie so I don't know all the terms)
 
I've had no problem with other people using their lap tops here until my son bought this one. It has Vista on it so I am not sure if that would make a difference. I am sitting right here using my desk top and its working fine. I have his lap top next to me. When i get on the internet on his lap top, mine goes. When I get on the internet on my my desk top, his goes. None of this is making any sense to me. Its like only one of them can be used at a time.
