How to connect HP laptop to internet?

I just got this laptop: http://www.pcworld.co.uk/...4-pdt.html

And i don't know how to connect to the internet. I'm not tech savvy so i'm really confused about this as with my iphone and ipad i've just had to enter my code and then i'm good to go, but now it's asking for a username and password and when i entered what i thought it would be it said it was wrong/couldn't connect. Do i need wires? I have the BT infinity black router with the pull out thing with the codes on so i tried them but no luck? I'm really confused please help.

Added (1). Thank you, i've done it now. Also no, mine never came with much information. But thanks!

You need to connect it to the router. I'm surprised the laptop doesn't have a wireless assistant.

Look at the specs for your laptop on the HP site. Go to the help forum. They can help or you can contact HP who can walk you through this.

You can also go to the router website and talk to them about it.

I'm not tech savvy either but there were directions with the router, modem and my laptop that helped me to set it up.

  • Laptop won't connect to internet through router? I set up my new linksys n300 router and I can successfully connect to the internet through the Wi-Fi on my iphone but on my laptop, I get an exclamation point symbol. Troubleshooting the problem says its a problem with my access point but seeing as how the Wi-Fi works on my phone, I'm not sure this is the case. How can I fix this?
