windows 2000 - Enable wifi
I have a very old laptop running Windows 2000.
Can wifi be used in Windows 2000 Professional? If so, how do I enable this?
When I look at Network properties, I only see options related to dialup.

did you physically turn on the wifi? alot of old laptops have a physical on and off switch or button.

wifi on the laptop is switched on
Does the machine have Wi-Fi in it? It may not.
Does it have a USB port? Try an inexpensive Wi-Fi USB stick. That will come with its own drivers.
