Although the greatest advantage of wireless Internet is mobility, you can still connect an immobile desktop wireless. This might be the case when you have multiple computers spread out around your home that must share a single Internet connection. Connecting to a wireless network works the same for desktops or laptops. However, unlike laptops that typically have built-in wireless support, desktops require an additional wireless adapter. The easiest way to install a wireless adapter is using USB.
Instructions
· Plug the USB wireless adapter into an available USB port on your computer. After a few seconds, Windows 7 will automatically install all necessary drivers and tell you the hardware is ready for use.
· Click the wireless network icon in the notification area of your Windows 7 taskbar. This icon looks like five progressively taller vertical bars. Alternatively, click the "Start" button, "Control Panel," "Network and Internet," "Network and Sharing Center," "Connect to a Network" and finally "Wireless Network."
· Click the wireless SSID network name to which you wish to connect from the list of available wireless networks.
· Check "Connect Automatically" to store any passwords required and connect automatically when you boot your computer.
· Click "Connect."
· Enter the security key associated with the wireless network, if required. Unsecured networks do not require a password.
· Click "OK" to connect wireless.
