Barry he stated....

"hi, i have a wireless ethernet card (802.11b) and i also have 3
servers"

He siad he has a wirelss ethernet card and ALSO have 3 servers. That would
be 4. I take it he wants to wireless conenct the first device to his
network.

If your router supports 802.11b it should automatically detect the device if
it is a newer router, if not you have to configuare all the gateways and
settigns manually.

I recommend gettign a linksys router or other Cisco wirelss switches which
will save a headache. If you are runnign Windows Xp, it will detect the
network and ask you if you want to conect to it. If not secure check ALLOW
so it auto connects.
