How to Connect a Macbook Air to a Wireless Network

The MacBook Air is advertised by Apple as the world's thinnest notebook because of its lack of a CD drive and peripheral ports, such as an Ethernet port. As such, the 3-lb., less-than--inch thick MacBook Air is meant to be highly portable and connect to wireless networks. The laptop connects to wireless connections in a way similar to Apple's other laptops.
