Pick up a wireless router unless you already have one and make sure the laptop is wireless enabled if not you just need to purchase a wireless card for your laptop.

If you dont get the best wireless siganl you can also purchase wireless boosters to boost the capacity of the siganl strength, my wireless router is in my bedroom and picks up the signal downstairs well and u can get an indication of signal strength on the laptop to see how strong it it

I got a good deal on a Linksys wireless adsl router and wireless card from PC World for £39.99 normally £79.99, think the offer will be finished by now though

It's a good machine for internet/home office use but will not be suitable for modern games or storing large amounts of media.
Acer quality has improved dramatically over the past couple of years and the price is hard to beat, especially if you go through Quidco.
