Connecting a Vista pc to Wireless router

After running the set up disc that was provided by the Internet Service Provider the user was unable to connect to the internet even though the pc was plugged directly into the router. The first thing that we did was to get access to the routers interface by getting the gateway address. After connecting and logging in we went to the wireless settings and had to configure the wireless security, router name, WEP encryption and set the security key. After recording the key ( code for connecting to the wireless network) we disconnected the pc from the router, made sure that the modem and router were connected properly and then tried to reconnect to the wireless. After viewing available wireless networks we found the correct one and double clicked on it, entered in our code and we were online!
