Going through it last night I found that the authentication wasn't being done properly. The wireless manager program I told him to use finds the network and connects, but needs the WPA key entered and for it to be listed as a trusted network to get full access (Internet etc). The SSID set was too simple and so the program wouldn't allow for it to be marked as a trusted network.

The only thing he needs to do is change the SSID on the routers configuration pages to broadcast a different name, and then he can mark it as trusted in the Wireless Manager program on his laptop
