I can only guess that the security protocols don't match. What protocol is the router set to (WEP, WPA, etc.)? If it's WPA, there are various different versions, so the laptop must have exactly the same.

What operating system are you using, what is the make/model of network adapter and which configuration tool are you entering the settings into?
Also what make/model of router is it and how are you setting the security there?
