Thanks. I do know the password for my modem, and I was able to figure out where
to enter the information to change the settings on the laptop to enable wifi,
but I no longer have the authentication password.
I decided to leave things as they are and possibly buy a newer laptop sometime

To actually solve your problem, we need to know more about:
- whether you know what your modem/router's WiFi password OR
if you can set it to a new password
- more details about how your computer's OS lets you set the WiFi
password. My best guess is that you can

Since you appear to be setup to bypass authentication and log into your

Connecting to any WiFi is pretty simple. Most have a

Ok thanks for that information. I was hoping I could use the laptop with my
wifi, wirelessly, so I don't have to be so close to the modem when I'm using

Following up Hugh's comment,
1. Perhaps you can describe your setup when it was working. Presumably,
you were using ethernet cable (the one with phone-like clip on the end,
technically RJ-45).
2. If you had been using DSL via WiFi before, then it's matter of
selecting which access point (SSID)
