Can't get Laptop to be on Home Network Wirelessly

I've got a home network setup and everything works with the CAT5e cable. My laptop is a Dell Inspiron. My network is called HOUSLEY HOME

My router is a Linksys wired and wireless router. The laptop shows a very strong signal. The network card is a silver Orinoco card.

The network identified on the laptop is Linksys and not HOUSLEY HOME. I have tried deleting both of these and reinstalling but it always comes back the same. Under local area properties I have Client for MS Networks, File and printer Sharing, QoS Packet, and Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) ALL checked.

Should 'Enable network access control using IEEE 802.1x be checked on any of the computers including the laptop?

Any other help anyone can give would be appreciated.

Thanks, John
