Try getting a cheap ethernet chord like you said. Also look up about updating your ethernet drivers. That could very well be the problem. Good your computer and the website will tell you what type of ethernet drivers you need.

You can get a cheap wifi adapter of ebay or amazon. And you install the cd that comes with it that has the drivers and the software and bam you're connected.

if your computer is only 2 years old , there should be a wireless capability. there is a switch on the computer that you need to turn on for wireless ability. hope that helps.
