Check your router or your modem if they are WiFi enabled. Usually there is a sign/mark in your router or modem that says "802.11b/g/n" or something with 802.x, if it has then it can support WiFi. Just enabled it if it supports it. If not just buy another modem or router.

You would have to use a Wi-Fi modem. Also you would have to check if both your PC and Laptop have a Wi-Fi card.
