On my home computer we have broadband through a modem plugged into the telephone socket. I now have a laptop in my bedroom which I also want to use the internet on. What do I need to buy and do to use the internet on both computers on a wireless connection?

If your computer is wireless Integrated then all you need to is connect it through going the going the control panel, if it works via plug only then buy a wireless usb adapter

what internet provider are you on?

If you’re plugging the existing computer directly into the modem, all you need to do is buy a wireless router and plug that into the modem too. Then on your laptop you connect to that wirelessly and should get internet access! Make sure to secure the wireless router with a password to keep your network secure.

okay you need a “router”, it’s the device that lets you have wireless singal through out your house
you need a “wireless antenna” for your computer and for your laptop if you don’t have them already.
Lynksys, is a good product to buy.
And last thing best way to ask this and get information when you are in the store. go to Best Buy or Staples. They’ll know what to give you
I just hope you don’t have dial-up. Good luck!
