      Is the wifi card on your laptop activated?  There is usually a button somewhere that lights up when it is on.  If you are positive that is on, the drivers for the card might not be installed.  So you will have to go to the manufacturers site and find the exact model and download them.

        Yes, Everything is on, the switch is on, the light is on, and the version is the lastest for the wifi card (12.4.0.21) for 4965AGN.

        Is the router broadcasting its SSID or have you switched that off?  Are you using MAC access protection?  What security are you using?  (WEP, WPA, WPA2)

        You might need to check your router manual for answers.
        Only able to visit the forums sporadically, sorry.

        Do you know how to access your router's control/admin panel via your web browser?
