Is WiFi Necessary for Using a Laptop in College?

In summary, to clean your laptop screen without damaging it, use a soft, lint-free cloth slightly dampened with water or a gentle screen-cleaning solution. To extend the battery life of your laptop, adjust power settings, turn off unnecessary features, and regularly update your operating system. To connect to a wireless network, ensure your laptop has a wireless network adapter and select the desired network from your network settings. If your laptop is running slow, close unnecessary programs, clear temporary files, and consider updating your operating system or adding more RAM. To protect your laptop from viruses and malware, have reputable antivirus software, be cautious when downloading or opening files from unknown sources, and avoid suspicious emails or attachments.

I got my daughter a laptop for her high school graduation and I need some advice.

When she goes to college, I'm not sure what she's going to need to be able to go online. Does she need anything special to be able to use WiFi??

New laptops come with WiFi capabilities (PC's & Mac) so she should be fine
 
Where is she going? My son is heading off to IU in Bloomington. He received a letter with minimum requirements for a new PC a few weeks ago.
