detecting wireless networks

I have a wireless notebook adapter (mn-520) and when I
try to view all available wireless networks it sees
nothing. I'm starting school and need to be able to
access their AP's. Any thoughts?

I would contact the school administration in charge of the wireless network
and ask how to access the setup. You may need to know which channel they're
running on, and obtain a password to gain access. If it is a wide-open
network and you're running Windows XP, I would make sure to get XP SP2
installed with the new Windows Firewall before exposing your computer.
