The Dell Inspiron 530 is a desktop, it comes with optional Wireless card.
I do no know if yours has it.
If you have a Wireless card there should be an Antenna in the back of the box, and an Entry in the Windows Device Manger.
General example, http://www.ezlan.net/Win7/net_dm.jpg
Otherwise, download the full manaul of the computer from Dell's Support page and see if there is instructions about Wireless.

You have already a Wireless Router. If youi do not have a card buy USB card like this.
General example, http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16833166041&cm_re=wireless_usb-_-33-166-041-_-Product
