Airport Card help - still wont work in browser

Hi there
I posted a while ago and have now bought and installed an airport card successfully. I want to use my ibook wirelessly using my bt wireless broadband router. The airport card is picking up the BT voyager router signal strongly and apparantly it is really easy from here on but I cant get anything to work from here on. I assumed I'd just open the browser and it would work but it keeps coming up with a message about the server not working.
I am so angry with how long it has taken me to get a mac on the internet, I shant be buying another in the future but for now I am using a friends windows laptop with all the wires connected.
Can ANYONE please please help me!!?? I do not need anymore hardware type objects do I? I'm stumped

Hi, Jenny. Welcome to Apple Discussions.
What is the MHz rating of your iBook?
What version of the Mac OS are you using? (We need to know this because the method for setting up AirPort is a little different in each.) Guessing that you are in a version of OS X, go to System Preferences > Network and make sure that AirPort is selected as your means of getting on your network.
How are you connecting to the internet? Are you connecting via a DSL modem, a cable modem, or what?
Which model of wireless router do you have?
There are some troubleshooting guides here (if you haven't already checked there):

Click on the topic, "Im unable to access the Voyager Config Manager on my Macintosh..." However, choose the AirPort settings instead of Ethernet.
I'm no expert on this, because my iBooks (all four of them) have just found our network with no problem.
