Its specs

              https://support.hp.com/au-en/document/c03348663

 

It does NOT have wifi adapter therefore you can't connect it to a wifi network including hotspot. Quick, cheap and easy fix for your old machine: buy an adapter, which is similar to the following one

There are many similar ones around and cheapert too.

 

Regards.
