    Control Panel, network and internet,connect to a network.
    You may have to enter a network key if you have previously secured your network.
    I am making the assumption that your computer is wireless enabled.
    That gum you like is coming back in style.
  • That router works fine with Vista clients.
    What encryption are you using? AFAIK, Vista needs WPA-PSK (or WPA2 ideally) to connect. If you're using WEP that's incredibly insecure anyway, so WPA is the way to go.
