Assuming it's a desktop You will need a PCI or PCI-E wireless card to connect wirelessly,or alternatively homeplugs or a USB wireless adaptor.The LAN port is only for connecting a wired ethernet cable.

Best by a dongle - the shops are open tomorrow.

Can you post the full spec? If you did not upgrade to a wireless card then you probably don't have built in wireless, some motherboards have it but i doubt you have it selected.

If its anywhere near the router you can connect to the router with an Ethernet cable, you should have got at least 1 with the router. If not, as others have said, get a wireless USB dongle from the supermarket or pretty much any other highstreet electrical store.

Once you post the full specs we can tell you if you just need to maybe install drivers or something.

Sadly, from the copy and paste above, you have not selected a Wireless card from the drop down options, you still do have an Ethernet port on the rear of the PC and can use a cable from your Router in order to get on the Internet.
