How can i change my non wireless internet connection to wireless?

I dont have wireless internet connection and I want to use internet on my laptop aswell. How can I change it to wireless? My internet connection at the moment is broadband.How can i change my non wireless internet connection to wireless?
Assuming Windows-


First, if you don't know if you have a wireless adapter on your computer, go to;





- device manager (start %26gt; control panel %26gt; system %26gt; device manager) and expand the 'network adapters' sub menu. - If you see anything that says 'wireless' there, right-click it and make sure it is enabled (if it says 'disable', it's good, if it says 'enable', click it). If you don't see a wireless adapter there, you'll need to get one.





Then get a wireless router. There are lots of them out there but I recommend getting a Linksys because they are highly configurable, very reliable, standardized, flexible, and economical. You can get one from walmart for $60 +/-





Unplug the power from your modem, then;


Make the connection as follows:


From the wall port, connect your modem.


From your modem, connect your wireless router.


From your wireless router, connect devices that you had previously connected directly to your modem (your desktop computer).





Plug power into your modem


plug power into your router


turn on your desktop and begin with the installation disk that came with the router.





Good luck!How can i change my non wireless internet connection to wireless?
That is what wireless routers do.


Buy a wireless router and attach it to your broadband modem.





You can then connect a PC to the router with an ethernet cable or with a wireless connection.
You can use an Ethernet cable that plugs in the router to the computer .


Or you can call broadband up and ask them if they support wireless and can they send a new router to tour house if yes


If no (and you want wireless) get a new Internet provider that has wireless . Like BT
