    I'm guessing you mean without wires(wireless) if your setting up your router

    Make sure your laptop is in range and wireless is turned on
    In the bottom-right corner there is a icon with that looks like a computer screen
    Hover over that and right-click
    From the menu that pops up choose Connect to a network
    A list of available wireless networks will appear
    Right-click on your network and click properties from that menu
    This will open a security page to enter your network password..

    Hope this helps..

    Sorry, i just cant understand your problem exactly..

    Ok you have a router with an Ethernet cable connected to it??
    Have you a wireless network set-up??
    Or have you the Ethernet cable plugged into the laptop directly??

    I think you are asking how to set up your router? It may depend on your model, but on my Netgear I connect the router to my laptop with an Ethernet cable. Then on the bottom of the router there is a URL address that I type into my browser and it brings me to the configuration pages in my browser. Other routers may require a program on a CD that comes with the router.
