Lap Top or regular computer and the internet?

Every modern day laptop comes with an inbuilt card that will allow you to connect it to a wireless network (WiFi) if you know the security key to connect to that wireless network. If you have an Internet Connection at home, you will be provided with a modem and a router that you can set up in wireless mode. You will be provided with the unique security key to this wireless network and hence if you have a laptop, you will be able to connect to this wireless network.

Moreover, various public WiFi networks allow you to connect without typing in the Security Key. In this case, if you have a laptop, you can go to such a free WiFi place and connect to that network as well.

In case of a laptop, you can also hook it up to a Router using a cable. In that case, there is no security keys needed.

These are the options that comes with a laptop if you talk about connecting to Internet. Hope I am able to explain things here...

First of all - you need to have Wifi facility in the laptop. All the newest laptops have the them. Even the cheapest netbooks offers Wifi.

Next, you need to have Wifi router at the home. You'll connect your laptop to the router in wireless mode. Most ISP's these days offer Wifi router when you purchase Internet subscription from them.

You can also connect to Wifi when you are at the airport, offices, etc.

If you've used bluetooth on smartphones - then you must have transferred files between two mobiles. That's the exact way how Wifi works.
