Hi

what standard does the wireless network support, a, b, g, n ?
(what is it set to use which is a different question)

similarly what about the wireless card in the Windows 7 PC ?

what type of network is set on the Windows 7 PC (Home, Business, Public) ?

If network is setup for N only and PC does not support N you can see network but not connect

I advise you to set security and password on network once you have the connection working unless you intend to setup a local free wireless hotspot for your neighbours
