If you have a wired connection (such as a local area network) and a wireless router (20-40 bucks at best buy), the wireless router will convert the connection into a signal that your computer's wireless card will pick up and convert back into a connection to the internet.

Wireless Internet is made available to you by a router and an access line. Internet access is provided by cable, phone or satellite companies. The computer will need to be configured with the router. You will need to go to the Control Panel and set up your Internet Connection.
