How do I add a laptop to my wireless internet connection?
So my mom has a laptop and I'm trying to connect it to our wireless connection for her. When I put my mouse over the bars that are in the corner of my screen none of the available connections pop up. When I click it, it says connections are available. The only thing that pops up is Dial-up and VPN and Broadband Connection. I tried clicking broadband but it didn't help me at all. When I tried it, it said connection WAN Miniport. After a minute or two it says error 651: The modem (or other connecting device) has reported an error. At the bottom it said redial and close. I don't know what the error it because my internet works fine. When I connected the laptop I'm on now it joined no problem. What can I do to connect the other one?

check that the wifi is switched on on the laptop , there should be a switch somewhere on the front or side of it to turn wifi on/off, if there is no switch try pressing Fn + F2 together, this is the usual key combination to turn wifi on/off if there is no switch on the laptoip
