I am trying to hook up the Internet through my pavilion. Slim line s56101 PC.

 

It’s an old computer, but it has very rarely been used. Does this machine allow for a Wi-Fi connection because the only option I saw was an ethernet port under my Internet connections. I tried plugging in a Netgear wireless USB adapter, but it didn’t work. How do I get Internet on this computer through my Wi-Fi or what other options do I have to get connected? I’m looking to stream the NFL football games through YouTube TV subscription that I recently purchased. Please advise and thank you.

Hi:

 

The parts list for your PC indicate that it does not come with built in Wi-Fi.

Did you install the required drivers for the model Netgear USB Wi-Fi adapter you have?

 

What operating system are you running on the PC?
