Briefly for information: we have a new laptop and the old one has been completely deleted and reactivated by a computer specialist. So the operating system. I don't really know all the computer terms. Now we have got the old Lappi back and have no Wi-Fi connection, so no internet connection. The new laptop was in there automatically. Does the second Lappi have to be registered in the router in order to get an internet connection?
Probably, depending on the router, this can be done with a WPS button and the login data, with others you have to enter this manually with a MAC address etc.
With a FritzBox, this is also possible using the WPS button. And yes, multiple devices go through a router. You receive individual internal IP addresses from the router for, among other things, the detection.
In other words, search for your router under the networks, before you then log in with a password, press the WPS button, it will flash and your device should connect to the router.
Every device that you want to register in your WLAN must know what the access point (router) is called and what the password is.
In Windows, you can go to the network settings in the task bar at the bottom left or you should see that networks are available.
You select the appropriate network and are asked to enter the password. As soon as you have entered and confirmed this, your notebook connects to the router and has access to the Internet.
You have a bar at the bottom right of the laptop on the desktop (start screen) (there's also the time.
to the left of the clock there should be a symbol that looks like bars. There you click on it. Now a window opens with the networks nearby. There you click on your network. (Probably iwas with Fritzbox)
the password is under the Fritzbox, if you have not changed it, use it
Small note, use lank cable, it makes it easier. ^^
