Hi,

For me to help you in a better manner, I need a few details from you:
 
1. Are you getting any error message when you try to connect to Internet  
    wirelessly?
2. Do you have any other computer which connects wirelessly at home with the
    same router?
3 Please let me know the Operating System which you are using?

I would recommend you a link which will give you step by step information about wireless connectivity. Please click the link below:

http://dell.to/RcmkVA

Once you click the link, it will first ask you to click on the Operating System which you are using and follow the step which should resolve the issue.

Do keep me posted with the results. 

Thanks & Regards
Rathish C
