BT Wireless not connecting on ibook

    I am setting up BT broadband for my gf on her ibook and am having some problems which are really confusing me. I myself use IBB and have an airport wireless router and wds station to bridge connections and have never had any hassle with this. I have also installed eircom on a few computers before but I'm lost and hoping someone can help!

    She had the wired router before and all works fine but she got BT to send her the voyager 2110 wireless router the other day. Went through the set up and connection shows up so I connect to the network. Internet light is on on the router but when I go to load any page it won't. It will either load after 5mins or timeout. So I put in the lead and pages connect straight away so its not the speed. The router is also next to the laptop while I'm trying this out. Strange thing is when I ping say google.ie using the wireless connection I instantly get replies at around 50ms each one.

    Whats going on here? Wireless connections on macs are usually so straight forward unlike some pcs. Can anyone help here?

    [I posted this on the broadband forum and was told to try over here instead]
