Which iBook, if it is indeed the first iBook released yours may not support the network protocol.
What is the network security, if it is WPA(2) it might not be possible with your Hardware to connect to the network.

It's a Clamshell.
OP, the AirPort card can be put in there easily by lifting up the keyboard.

Although you are apparently connecting via Wi-fi already...
There is a problem, I think I don't have a airport card. If I don't, I can't get a new one because they are expensive.
Let's figure this out
... HOW do you connect? Do you have a wire coming out from the side in the ethernet port, from the menubar? Or...?Let's figure this out
I do use the ethernet port I have, but I can't seem to use it.
Do you have another computer? Try and use that cable on another machine just to rule out its not that.
Can you show us the windows that you're typing your user info in? Blank it out of course.
You don't need the card, that's only for wi-fi.

While you are all thinking about it, I am going to be watching Shark Tales on my XBOX.
