Answer 1

u need one of 2 things. (I have a MBP) A wireless router, or, an ethernet cable.

Also, go to Apple> System preferences> network. That will tell you the status of airport. It should have a green light next to it. If not, go to your upper right hand tool bar and click the icon with the radiating waves. And select your network. If you are using wep or wpa encryption you will need to know your password. Also, if you have a wirless N router, you may not have wireless N enabled on your macbook. In the meantime you can make sure your router is set to b,g,n.

You may be able to enable N on your MB by going to apple.com and buying the capability (just search for it).

I am not sure if the MB can do N though, I know the MBPs can.

Hope this helps!

Go up to your Blue Apple upper left, click it and then choose System Preferences. Now choose Network.
There you have 3 choices. Select your method click it and drag your method to the top of the list, it will show a green dot.
Remember if you choose Airport you must have a wireless Router hooked to your Internet Service Providers Modem.
Otherwise you will need to connect with a ethernet cable.
