The DS will only do WEP, so make sure your router security is not set to WPA or WPA2.

Well, the laptop should certainly connect using WEP. I would assume it has some sort of connection wizard that can create a new connection. If you are running a Windoze machine, look in your control panel.

if you had wpa on your laptop, make sure you change it to the new wep password. But I can't think of a laptop that can't connect to a wep encrypted network
