Might want to check first whether that laptop already has WiFi support 
built in (many new ones do).

If not, I'd recommend D-Link for both router and card - I've dealt with 
many different brands of wireless products and D-Link are the only ones 
that have never given me any problems.

Spend the few extra dollars and get the 802.11g (54Mbps spec) rather 
than 802.11b (11Mbps spec), as well.

Finally, make sure when you set up your router, that you enable WEP 
(Wireless Encryption Protocol) to prevent outsiders from getting into 
your system.
