I am having a problem setting up a new wireless router that I have purchased. I have a desktop and a laptop with wireless capability. I have used the installation CD to install the router and router config to the destop and I have done the same on the laptop. When I turn on the wireless on the laptop it displays the following message:

Im very familiar with computers but im still "noobish" so to speak, at simple wireless networking. I'm guessing this is not a uncommon problem?
Yea thats pretty much all I have to offer for this problem. However I think the IP conflice may be because both computers using internet from the same ISP, charter, but i dont now about that hypothesis. Because both machines are not connected simultaneously.
Thanks for any help!
