Why isn't my laptop connecting to the internet?

Question

Ok, here's the thing. I got a virus or something on the laptop and a starting file went missing or became corrupt. I did a standard system start, but it erased all of my files and folders and restored the factory settings. However now I cannot connect to the internet through it. I know I had difficulty last time, but i did manage it in the end. My router has a wap key, but I don't know where I have to enter this in order for it to connect. That's all I know really. Thanks alot =D

Answer 1

when you go to network connections in your control panel try connecting to the network it should come up with a window that asks you to enter the wep/wap key into the panel after doing that you should be able to connect to the internet
