Windows XP Home is the standard operating system on this netbook and it has a wizard for setting up the wireless networking capabilities of the computer.
Instructions
1. Look at the system tray on your MSI Wind netbook. Find the icon that looks like a computer monitor.
2. Right-click this icon and choose "View Available Wireless Networks."
3. Choose the SSID, or name of your wireless network. Choose the wireless network with the strongest signal strength if you are unsure what the SSID for your network is. Usually that will be the right network, unless you have multiple wireless networks or hotspots located very close to your computer.
