Windows 10 - Connect to WIFI with a Password


This one is for Ken so that he can connect to Wifi down at the club.

Your computer won't automatically connect to the internet when you take it to a new place. A laptop or tablet or phone connects to the Internet through Wifi (short-range wireless signal).

A Wifi connection is usually protected by a Wifi password which needs to be entered into the laptop. You only have to enter the password once, the laptop will remember it after that and automatically connect to that Wifi whenever it is near to it.

What the heck is the Cloud anyway?


What is the Cloud? You keep hearing people talk about the Cloud but what exactly is it?

Initially, it was a name used to represent the whole internet but lately it has come to mean online storage or services like Facebook or Google Photos.

The Cloud (online storage) is just somewhere to store photos, documents, etc. on the internet. Some well known Cloud providers are Google Drive, Microsoft OneDrive, Dropbox, Apple iCloud, Flickr, Yahoo Mail,etc..

Here is a Utube video explaining the general idea -

Most Cloud access is made through a Web browser like Firefox, Google Chrome or Internet Explorer, or a mobile app.
One advantage of the Cloud is that you can access your files from anywhere and on any computer just by using a Web browser.

One disadvantage is that you will need an internet connection to access the cloud.
