Do you already have a Wireless NIC installed?

If so, once in the residence, Search for Available Networks.... it should
find and ask if you want to connect to whatever their SSID is.... then they
will need to give you the key/password....

If they are letting you join their Workgroup, they will let you know what
that is called, otherwise you will only get access to the internet and not
to their PCs.
