Ok first you do not need to run a new connection wizard as your
windows wifi connection should show
the available wifi networks for you to select one to connect to.
now find out if you are actually connected:
Start > Run > type "cmd" to prompt to DOS and type "ipconfig" and hit
Enter; you should see your IP address leased from your router.
Normally on linksys the IP address is 192.168.1.xxx.
then from your DOS prompt type: Ping yahoo.com
just to make sure that you are connected to the Internet.
