Help with wireless network and 3 Dell laptops please

[leighd8]

I have set up a network at my new college house with 4 other roomates.

we have a cable connection with a Buslkink 614 router.

I am hard linked to the router trhiough the ethernet connection using xp on my desktop

one roomate can get wirless connection with XP on a Dell

however 3 of my roomates have the same Dell computer with the same Trumobile 1130 wirless ethernet cards, and they cant hook up. I can get the ethernet utilty to find good connection, however they cannot connect to the internet. it might be something small.

thanks for your help

How do you have the router setup as far as being locked down? Do they have all that info entered in their machines?

do all the machines work when hard wired? can the computers see each other?

I havent tested them hardwired, because they are getting signal,

im not sure what you mean by locked down.

the network utility auto dects the rigth channel and network, the connection is great, just no internet connection.

will the win2k dells need to be in the same domain? or netowork, becuase the xp dell doesnt need that
