VISTA and router compatability

[Guest]

Hi, just got a laptop with VISTA installed. My internet connects via a
wireless router/modem (Billion make). No problem using a laptop with Win XP
but cannot conect wirelessly with this VISTA PC, but can conect via a LAN
lead as now.
Network and Sharing shows my LAN connection as Access=Local and Internet but
my wireless connection Access=Local only.
Cannot repair it or get another IP address. All settings as for Win XP.
Strange thing is that this laptop will connect to a NetGear router and a
BTHub, so is my Billion router just incompatible ?
