So far, so good (I'd think), but here is where the trouble starts. Now
I have a notebook and a PDA that have innate WLAN functionality. After
setting up my wireless router (most basic settings: everything
automatic, simple (64-bit HEX) WEP key), I could connect to it with my
notebook and PDA. For my desktop PC, I'm using a USB adapter, which is
recognized by Vista immediately. Now for some reason, I cannot find my
wireless network (or any other wireless network for that matter) with
my desktop... And I have _no_ idea why my desktop cannot find any
wireless networks, while my PDA and notebook can.

So my question is:
Leon

Make sure the wireless on your desktop is turned on/enabled... That's what
it does when disabled (also does that if the firewall is blocking things)
