Yes you can. Quote the first person, then when it loads the post editor, scroll down, press the quote button again.
Tadaaaaa.
Also since I've read the thread after cleaning it, you'll have a WRT54G, WRT54GR or a WRT54GS, they're crappy old linksys routers that used to be supplied by Virgin not long after first started offering wireless routers. I'd say it's actually down to the router rather than the laptop here, as I've experienced a number of problems with the 54GR I used to have.
My laptop, mum's laptop and mum's HTC Desire could all connect fine wirelessly, but my HTC Desire could not ever connect, even though both phones had the same software. If ever I had my xbox on wirelessly, if I turned it off, I would have to reboot the router or there would be no internet for any device in the house. There may be a firmware update available for the router, and if I remember correctly with the WRT54GS you can actually install DD-WRT, which is a different and much more capable firmware. There are numerous guides on how to do it, just use google
Failing that you'd need to use an ethernet cable or get a different router.
