Default Netgear WG511v2 - problem

Hi !

I bought this new Netgear WG511v2 wireless PC card for my laptop,
configured and got it working - atleast the status says that it is
connected to my router. But I seem to get no internet signal from it on
my laptop - no packets are interchanged - websites do not come up. Any
ideas ? I thought that if I got the wireless card to connect to the
router, it was end of story. Would there be any extra settings that I
need to configure ?

The router works fine, as I am able to receive packets / surf websites
using an ethernet cable and also receive packets / surf websites using
another laptop with a built in wireless card.

Any pointers would be really appreciated.



Cheers,
Ashok.

BTW, the WG511v2 has a MAC address and the laptop has a MAC address.
Which MAC address would get preference ?
