Default Wireless network

Hi, Everyone,
I have bt broadband running thru a wireless router to my laptop & i'm receiving a new desktop pc for upstairs, my question is this, how do i connect the new pc to my existing wireless network, my pc will have a mobo that has wi-fi built in. The answer may be very simple but as i've never done it before & any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

You connect it the same way as you did your laptop, if you can't remember if you click on the wifi symbol in the taskbar and then scan for available gateways and then click your routers name, enter the security settings for your router and there you go, you should be connected

If you intend on using onboard WiFi make sure you install the drivers for it, as it tends to be optional. Mine was.

Just out of curiosity, what motherboard is it?
