I wish, with my cousin's consent, to utilize his wireless connection. What specifics must I need to know in order to achieve this (ex. I.P. address, passwords, usernames, etc.).
Thanks in advance!

There are many different security options. If you cousin set up the wireless network and has no clue about his security setup then there shouldn't be any problems. Otherwise theres WEP, WPA, access lists, non-broadcasted SIDs and a few other security measures to tackle.

It depends on how he has his wireless access point setup. You may need to know nothing, but you may need to know: IP Address, Gateway, Encryption Key and associated Encryption Method. He may also require your MAC address.
