Your computer's built-in network features make it easy for you to
connect your computer to the internet using a cable or a wireless
connection.
First though, in order to connect to the internet, you'll need to
sign up for internet services from an ISP (Internet Service
Provider) -- usually a phone or cable company -- that will have to
go to your home or office to set up internet service. The ISP will
install a small box, a router or modem, that will allow you to
connect to the internet.

Connecting to a wireless network

Connecting to a wireless LAN

A wireless LAN (or WLAN) is a wireless local area network, which
can link two or more computers without using wires. Once
connected to WLAN, you can access the internet. You can also
share files, other devices, and even your internet connection
itself.
Your computer's wireless connection is turned on by default and
Windows will detect and display a list of available networks during
setup. Select your network and enter the password if required.
You can use the network management options to turn your
wireless network on/off or control what is shared over the
network.
To connect to a wireless network, please follow the steps below.
