How do I get internet on a computer that has no connection? I have 3 computers one is hooked up to the internet and has a wireless connection for the laptop but the other computer has no internet and don't have a phone jack; is there a way or a device that can give that computer internet or make it realize the wireless connection is there.

If your PC does not have a network card, you could buy a USB wireless adapter. They come cheap. Prefer to buy one that says it is supported by Linux.

Hi,
or buy a network card that you would fit inside your PC, they are very cheap!!.
