Wireless Network won't connect?

I have a HP Pavilion dv2000 laptop and I also have a desktop so I bought a Belkin wireless G router - 2.4GHz-802.11g and I followed the instructions on the disk and installed it into my desktop but then my laptop wont connect to the wireless network. every time I tried connecting to belkin54g it keeps saying "This network is marked as a hidden network and is either not in range of this computer or the wireless settings saved on this computer do not match the settings of the network". When I connect my laptop directly to the modem the internet works perfectly fine though.

You might try re installing the software and go through the motions of creating a password and encryption key. NOTE: Try writing or printing the router password and encryption key on a sheet of paper until you have your computer connected to the router. Once software completes, there should be an option such as Make This Computer Wireless or similar. The first step to making it wireless is to have your modem Ethernet cable plugged into the Internet port, and another Ethernet cable running from your laptop to one of the other ports on the router. Once your router configures your Internet Settings...then you can continue on with connecting by wireless. If your router's software doesn't come with a utility, then Click Start, Connect to, Wireless connections, View all wireless connections. See if your router is displayed, click on your router, and click Connect. You will have to enter the router's password and possibly the encryption code in order to connect to the router.

Reply:Have you perhaps enabled security for the wireless router (WPA, WPA2 or WEP), and not entered the password correctly on your laptop?
