    Do you have a wireless router and a wireless card in the laptop?

    If so does the laptop recognize the wireless card?

    Let's start there...

    You didn't answer everything you were asked.

    Do you have a wireless router? That's the key issue. Most new laptops do have built in WiFi. But if you don't have a wireless router there is nothing to connect to.

    It might also help is you tell us what you have tried so far.

    OK, When you search for available networks, do you see yours?

    One other point, the more info you give us about what you did and what happened, the more quickly we can help you.
