Walter,

First, please don't continue to type in all upper case letters. It's hard to
read, and is considered shouting here.

# Is there enough scope for the DHCP server on the gateway? Check what range is
configured for DHCP, and what addresses have been handed out. Verify from the
DHCP log on the gateway.
# Is there MAC filtering on the gateway?
# Are you using the right WEP (are you using any encryption?) key?
# Check the log on the gateway, see if any errors are being detected when you
try to associate with it.
# Where is the computer from the gateway? Horizontal and vertical distance, and
relative antenna alignment, are all important.
# Get something like NetStumbler (free), and verify that the computer sees the
gateway, with a decent S/N ratio. Look at S/N ratio, not signal level.
