Connect to a Network in Windows 10

When you're within range of a wireless network, you can connect your computer to the internet using Wi-Fi. Your wireless network status always appears on the taskbar. If a wireless network is available, an asterisk appears above the wireless icon. Windows will also notify you if a wireless network is near your location.
