wifi problems with router?

[Macs4u]

Hi,

I have a macbook and have BT Broadband at home. I have bough a Belkin 54g wifi router and cant seem to get it to work.

I had it hard wired into my mums pc and i could use the wifi signal , but i disconnected my mums pc and cant get the wifi to work on my macbook now. Does it have to be hard wired to a pc to let me use the wifi or is it a setting i need to do?

is your mac finding the wireless network? do you have airport turned on?

Do you have an ethernet cable running from your modem to the router?
