Make sure your computer has a wireless Internet card, either built in or as a plug-in adapter. This allows your computer to pick up the signals being sent and received by your wireless Dish Network router and connect to the Internet. If you have a laptop purchased in the last few years it will most likely have a wireless card inside. Usually only newer desktop computers come with these cards installed.
