can't find wireless connection

[essential bill]

I am new to all of this (bluetooth, wifi) and have no idea what is wrong. when my ppc(x50v) is on it's cradle i can get on the internet. when i take it off and enable wireless. I get a message that says cannot connect with current connection settings. I have called my internet provider. they went over the settings and feel everything is right.why doesn't my ppc find this connection . I have a linksys wireless-g router. is there something else that i need to buy. do i need to send my ppc back to dell? is trhere something wrong with it?

What do you see when you go to settings>connection>Dell WLAN Utility>Site? Do you see your network? How about settings>connection>Network Cards? Is the box for Automatically connect to non-preferred networks checked? Where it says Configure wireless networks does anything show up there? Go to Network Adapters. Under configure network adapters does it say 'my network card connects to:' The Internet? Click on Dell Axim X50 WLAN Wireless Adapter. Is the box checked that says 'use server assigned IP Address? These are some things to check that are working for me. Keep Trying, don't give up.
