I connected a Linksys wireless-G to my desktop pc but my wireless ready laptop still shows no networks to connect to. Do I need to adjust my firewall settings?

did you enable the wireless on the router?
Linksys finally wised up and started shipping those w/ the wireless disabled..
You might also need to go into network preferences and "enable" the wireless connection..

Most likely you just do not have your Wireless adapter turned on.
Many laptops have a switch built into them to turn the wireless broadcast on and off to conserve power.
Check to make sure it is switched on.

You might have to disable your wireless and re-enable it.....
Go to start---->Network Connections-----> then right click on your wireless card and hit disable..... then after the little computer icon goes grayl... right click again and enable it..... if that doesnt work then you need to broadcast your SSID on your router... just consult your users manual for that....
