Sorry for the dumb question, but is that laptop connecting to the same access point as other devices?
Anyways, you can check your DNS and the rest of the settings (assuming win 7), by:
1. Press the windows button/key
2. type view network
3. click on network connections
4. right click on the wireless connection and click properties
5. in the list of items, double click on the one that has "internet protocol ipv4"
6. if everything is normal, everything is set to automatic.

Yeah pretty sure it is connecting to same access point. Iunno if this helps but my dad was screwing around with the router cause he got some chinese tv box and it needs to be connected to the router but I've already disconnected that so it shouldn't have any effect...
the laptop is on windows vista
but so basically it should show the Wireless Network Connection Status which shows the IPv4 Connectivity, IPv6 Connectivity, Media State, SSID etc right? Media State and SSID are the same as my computer but the IPv4 and IPv6 both say Local Only where as on my computer it says (IPv4)Internet and (IPv6)No Internet Access. Earlier on my computer it had 2 Network connections aswell but the second connection was named "Unidentified Network" but everything was connected to the same access point but I somehow got rid of that...
