1) Have you tried configuring your netgear to broadcast its SSID?
2) Set "Network to access:" to "All Available"?
3) Go to Network Adapters panel, set network card connects to "The Internet",.
4) In the same panel, select WLAN module, and specify "Use server-assigned IP address.", or use a static IP address depending on how your netgear is set up.
5) Maybe your netgear has MAC address filtering enabled (try turning it off)?
6) Are the encryption settings compatible (try turning it off)?
7) Is the netgear configured properly to connect to the internet?
8) Is the netgear configured to operate in mixed (802.11b/g) mode?

If I go to Dell WLAN Utility/Site Survey I can see my connection (I use a netgear wireless router) but it doesn't give it's name (have also tried highlighting clicking on profiles and setting up a profile with a blank for name but this also doesn't help. I've even tried a Hard Reset of the PDA, but that didn't help. Please somebody help!
