router problems......help!!!?

i have set up my wireless router, all the lights are on, but when I try to access my router with our new laptop, it states....limited access, no internet....what should I do? We are getting internet access on our wired computer. I am a newbie so baby steps please,this is sooo frustrating.

Update:

my laptop is accepting signals from other wireless routers... and the router came with a disk set up..that was installed already too.. it shows the router connection on the connections list, but when it goes to connect it says..limited access, no internet access only for my router though.
