How do I set up a wireless connection with Linux Mint 7?

I am completely new to Linux and recently created a Live-CD for Mint 7. I am having trouble getting it to even recognize my wireless signal. I know the computer itself can pick up on the signal as Windows still picks it up. I’ve tried going through and putting the info in as a ‘hidden’ wireless signal, but it still won’t let me connect. I spent several hours last night googling to see if I could find the answer that way, but I every site I tried did not offer the results I was looking for. Below are screenshots I’ve taken of exactly what I’m seeing to help anyone willing to help me know exactly what my problem is.
