    Hey everyone, I am very new to this a single mom and purchased my new laptop today and not sure how to get on the internet. Can someone explain to me what I would need to do to connect. I called the Toshiba 800 number and still holding. Anyway it is a Toshiba Satellite A135-S4447 and it says there is a 802.11a/b/b wireless and says you are ready for on the go computing. The sales guy at office max said I should be able to log right on. How do I get a internet service provider for wireless computing, do I need to buy any other wireless cards or anything. Feel so dumb, always had desktops and never had a problem

    Thanks
    S
