Wireless connects/nothing gets to internet

Thanks for the reply!  That seems to have been atleast some of the problem.  
My resolv.conf file had 192.168.1.1 so I assumed I assumed it should be 
192.168.0.1, the routers address.  After changing that, Gaim and a few other 
net programs work, but all browsers, yum and a few other apps still say they 
can't find webpages.  Any ideas?

Thanks,
Scott
