I can only ping to its own ip address. cannot ping to default gateway
so I cannot access the internet.

Are you using WEP encryption? If so, use the Hex key, not the ASCII
key.

Are you using WPA encryption? If so, watch your spelling and typing.

Did you get an IP address from the unspecified model "gateway"? Run:
start -> run -> cmd <enter>
IPCONFIG <enter>

- If the IP address is 0.0.0.0, wait a while longer.
- If it's 169.254.xxx.xxx, DHCP failed, probably because of encryption
key exchange problem.
- If it's 192.168.xxx.xxx, it's probably working and something else is
wrong.

I'm not sure what else to do, but I have already:
Uninstalled Norton Antivirus thinking that was the problem
Uninstalled & reinstalled the Linksys network card

It might be Norton's firewall. Norton should not prevent you from
obtaining an IP address via DHCP (see above), but will prevent you
from pinging anything. Try turning off "Norton Internet Security"
until it works.

Installed Wireless B Network 2 times
Rebooted 4 times

Perhaps burnt offerings to the radio gods?
