    Before you return it try it on another Wi-Fi hot spot. Or turn off security on your router and see if you can connect that way (then turn security back on)

    Go into B&N and try to connect to their Wi-Fi. Or try Starbucks or any other place that offers free Wi-FI.

    If you can connect to your router after disabling security then take a good look at the WEP or WPA key and make sure you're entering it right. Also make sure that there are no MAC address filters set in the router (sometimes people will specify in the router which MAC addresses can connect as an added measure of security).
