The laptop has the aerial (wifi enabled) to connect to a wireless signal.

You need a wireless router to transmit the signal.

If you have a wireless router, it will connect (after setting up) to the internet without being connected to the router by wire.

Thanks Ethel, I now know what it means. Not on wireless myself so I`ll have to make the connection via an ethernet connection.
Many thanks
