Question for the Computer Savvy people

We have a laptop computer.

We have a wireless connector (or whatever it is called) - for some reason the wireless card in the laptop is reading the signal, but we have no internet connection.

What do I need to do in order to get this to work?

Thanks for your help Chat Icon

I always try and reset the router first.

Unplug the "wireless thingies" (aka router and modem) from the wall for about 30 seconds and then plug it back in.

Re: Question for the Computer Savvy people

Do you have any security set up on the wireless router? My routers have a password that needs to be on the laptop in order to connect. Plus, I have it restricted by the network card address, so only my laptop can connect, even if someone else has the password.

Is the wireless enabled and configured? You may need to connect to the router with a wire for the first time, to configure it.
