You have slightly lost me here. Can you put this into simple English for a girlie? The bits I understand are in red

Seriously, I understand from this that she might have to change some router settings. How do you do this?

from your clarification post, this is now redundant. the 802.11b and 802.11g refer to the spec of the wifi, roughly translates to b - 11Mb/s, g - 54Mb/s data rates. Most routers can be set to transmit on b standard, g standard, or mixed b/g which means they operate on both b and g standard at the same time, so you could use a lappy with either standard wifi card fitted. However, if the router was only set to use g only, and the lappy's wifi card was a b standard, it wouldn't be able to connect
