Hmm.. dude.. it is from the v3000 series right? whats its exact model number?

BTW for connecting to the net wirelessly you need to have installed all the drivers required.. you can get it off HP United States - Computers, Laptops, Servers, Printers & more if the shop-keeper didn't get it for you..

Do you already have any existing broadband connection at home ?

If yes, you need a wireless router in the first place and you should be set to go. Popular choices in wireless routers are from Netgear.

Edit : Just saw the Specifications of the v3000. Does it have an inbuilt wireless card ??

If the router provided by BSNL already has a wifi, you don't need to get any other router.
