From the home screen press the menu button. Select Settings.
From settings click Wireless and Networks.
You should see the option for enabling Wifi.
After enabling it, you can connect to a network by going into Wi-Fi settings and choosing the applicable network.

SOURCE: wireless internet access

A wireless 802.11b LAN adapter is included in you tablet, activate it thru Control Panel / Wireless. Unfortunately this is the first generation standard and as such is extremely slow, has very limited range and is no longer supported by a lot of the newer generation devices/hotpoints.

SOURCE: My ACER tablet (ICONIA

Hi,
Welcome to Fixya. I would like to know if the wifi works before? If the laptop was able to detect and connect to a wireless signal and the Iconia won't you can check the warranty of the Iconia and call acer and they will be able to replace the unit. This is a common issue with Iconia that some of the device has a hardware wifi defect. You can also refer to the link below and see what happen with their Iconia and was able to talk to acer for a replacement.

Thanks

Asus tablet is locked out of wifi

Go into settings, turn off Wi-Fi, shut tablet down and wait a couple of minutes then turn back on. After boot up go back into settings turn Wi-Fi back on and see if you can connect to Wi-Fi. If not then the Wi-Fi part of the tablet is probably defective.

How do I connect my Samsung Galaxy to BT broadband?

Are you trying to connect via wi-fi or via bluetooth? Typical hotspots are wi-fi, and that can be as easy as turning on wi-fi (in Settings, Wi-fi - see manual or quick setup brochure) then waiting for it to find an active hotspot and plugging in any necessary password. Bluetooth is much less common. Post more info and I'll try to help more.
