Wireless internet.

uhhhh....
so what's the problem?
You're running 1 system connected by..... USB to the cable modem?
You're running the ethernet connection from the same cable modem
to the router? And the router won't connect wirelessly to a second
system? Dongle system..... the second PC has a wireless NIC connected
to it by a dongle? By serial port? Ethernet? But won't connect to
the internet.....

WILL the cable modem run both connects at the Same Time? Router may not
be getting any internet to give to the second system.

Software firewall running on second PC preventing any connection?
Even the default winders firewall thingy?

Can you, or have you even tried to connect to the firmware of the router
thru your browser? IP address of the browser is in the manual 192.168.0.1?

Does the router have wired ports? Have you tried configuring it thru them?

Filtering enabled on the router? Is the MAC address of the dongle nic
specified in the router firmware?

Is WEP or other encryption enabled on the router but not the dongle?

Is WEP or other encryption enabled on the dongle but not the router?

Have you tried resetting the router with the little button on the back?

Were the settings in the router firmware previously configured in a
different setup or are they out of the box?

Do you have some type of connection wizard software for the dongle?

If the router is in the same room, and you don't have excellent signal
strength, are you sure the the router and dongle nic are broadcasting on
the same bandwidth? 2.4 or 5GHZ?

Is there any compelling reason not to put the router between a Single cable
modem connection and the 2 PCs?

Is the router broadcasting SSID and is the dongle software actually trying
to connect to that specific SSID alone as it's primary connection?
