Newbie question: guest WiFi connection

My brother's PC has a cable modem and a wireless router. I'd like to use my Axim's wi-fi card to connect to the Internet (and, less importantly, to his PC). I have three problems:

1) I don't want to change any of his configurations

2) I don't have MiniStumbler or anything similar, and I don't think I can get it while I have access to this PC.

3) I understand very little about networking. The wi-fi card worked really well at the free hotspot in the Long Beach Airport, but here at my brother's house it just doesn't connect. I don't know what settings to use on my Axim.

Can anyone tell me what to do?

(PS: if I do get it working, remember I'd like to change it back later when I return to the airport...)
