The gateway is crap it blocks p2p and the password encryption is crap, my grandfathers computer jumps onto the network with out a password or any thing, and the install software crashed and blocks me from using a network cable I can only use the USB port

Sounds like your laptop is hit with spyware and or viruses. Try starting it in safe mode (F8) and seeing if you still have this problem. If it works in safe mode go to grisoft.com and download the antimalware free trial. Restart in normal mode and install and run the trial version.
