My daughter has the above Asus PCI card installed on her son's desktop =
computer, which runs windows xp.

She has her own desktop computer, which is hardwired to the D-link =
router about 20 feet away.

The son's computer sees the home network on her computer and says signal =
strength is excellent, yet she cannot establish a connection, whereby =
her son can see the Outlook express or Internet working. He is using the =
same windows xp as she has on her desktop.

She has her computer encrypted and put the same encryption key on the =
Asus PCI card when it asked for it, but still she cannot get the IE or =
OE.
She has also tried it by removing the encryption on her computer, but =
the son's desktop still cannot get to the Internet.

What can possibly be the cause? When the son's desktop sees the home =
network, does that not mean it "connects" via radio signal? How is it =
then that it does not connect to the home network internet?
