wireless modem/ router

Locked

i have just bought a wireless modem/ router and i can only use the internet when the modem/router is connected to my laptop. how do i make it so they dont have to be connected so i can use the internet if that is possible?
the modem router is centrino certified which is great because thats what processor my laptop has got.

If you are using Windows XP, you can just click on the wireless network connection on the taskbar and click connect. You really should talk to someone nearby with knowledge of wireless networking security to set up your wireless security.

Good luck.
