Is the light for wifi on at all? this is the light indicator on the laptop.
some hardware requires a hotkey utility to be downloaded and installed. With this installed you cna see on-screen the functions you are trying to enabled, e.g Fn + F5.
Also have you make sure that wifi is turned on in the BIOS.

There appears to be Windows 7 updates for all three versions of the realtek RTL8187 chipset. I suggest you try out the download in the link below. You will need to choose your version B,L or SE. Scroll to near the bottom of the page and click on the "software" link then scroll down again to find the Windows 7 download link.
If you are still having problems after the upgrade we can take a look at your router and see if it needs a firmware update.

Chev65 you are wrong. I have tried those before, and they don`t work.

What is your machine make and model? Maybe the vendor site has the hotkey utility.
You could try a vista driver if w7 is not present.

There isn`t any hotkey problem.
I have custom made laptop, and when I enable WLAN on XP works perfect, but when I tried it on 7 - it found the wireless network, but wasn`t able to connect. And yeah, I was trying that at home and at friends place.
I am still waiting for Realtek official Windows 7 RTL 8187 WLAN Utility.

8187/8187L 2010 drivers are now available... the UI seems to keep resetting channel plan to FCC and rate to 802.11B
