How to connect to Wi-Fi without password

When connected via Wi-Fi, you can go online from several devices using only one router. Access points can be two types: with password and without protection. Free access is in many public places: shopping centers, cafes, airports. In some cities there are spaces completely covered with Wi-Fatch. All you need to join the network is the presence of a gadget with a Wi-Fi adapter.

Turn on the computer, wait for it to fully download it. If you are lucky, then Windows will determine the new device, performs the settings automatically. Open the browser, type the address of your favorite site. This connection is unlikely. More often the system detects a distributing Wi-Fi device, but nothing works. Make sure your Wi-Fi driver is installed on your computer. If it is not, then install, then restart the system.

Now start configuring the Wi-Fi connection. At the bottom right, locate the network icon (vertical strips), click on the left mouse button on it. A list of connections to the wireless network opens. Select the name (SSID) in it with the left mouse button. If this network is protected by a password, then not knowing it, the login will not work. You must enter the security key to join Wi-Fi.

To join unprotected Wi-Fi, as described above, it did not work - it means that you need to make settings. Go to "Control Panel" through the Start button. Select the "Category" settings view mode, you need the "Network and Internet" tab. Go to it, on the left side of the menu, select the "Network and Shared Access Center" inscription.

In the new window on the left, find the list of functions, make a click on the "Changing Adapter Settings" row. Now you are a list of all available connections. Search among them "Wireless Network Connection". In the absence of a signal, the icon is crossed out when it is presence - vertical strips on the green icon. Right-click on the green icon and go to the "Properties" menu. If the icon is with a red cross, then select "Enable", then "Properties".

A window has opened in which there is a network tab. We are interested in the "Internet Protocol version 4 (TCP / IPv4)". Open its "properties" with the left mouse button. If the distribution of the Wi-Fi router performs automatically, then put points in the first subparagraphs (as in the photo).

Another case - the router does not distribute automatically IP addresses. You will have to enter them manually. Faster all you will learn your IP address if you look at this data in the computer settings. But usually the router is configured so that it assigns the addresses yourself when the device is connected to Wi-Fi. Finish all the changes by pressing the "OK" button.

Do not close the "Control Panel", and go to "Wireless Network Management". Again, as described above, select the connection you want, open it "Properties". Make sure that in front of the string "Connect automatically if the network within the action radius" is a tick, otherwise put it. Save the changes - OK. After all manipulations, the connection must occur, but it is better to restart the computer.

All the same Internet, although the signal appeared? Call your provider, make sure that there is no accident on the line that the signal in the apartment comes. Then make a call to technical support. Find out and write down on paper the data shown in the photo (or open the contract, they are there). Return to step 6 and instead of automatic settings enter your values \u200b\u200bin the corresponding fields.

You will definitely help one of the described connection methods. But no one is insured against problems. In case of failure, call the provider, let them check the settings of the router. His IP address on the bottom or side.
