Get connected when setting up Windows
- On the network screen, pick your Wi-Fi name and enter the password. The password is often on the router label.
- If the network is hidden, choose it from the list of options and type the name exactly.
- Ethernet skips this screen when a cable is already connected.
- After the desktop appears, open Settings > Windows Update so drivers for the wireless adapter can finish installing.
Some Windows editions expect an internet connection and a Microsoft account during setup. Connect if you can, rather than trying to skip the screen.
