All of this shit is confusing

Okay so my landlord said that the apartments all have internet. But to access that internet do I need a Wi-Fi router? Cuz I gotta get my homework done. And if this place does have internet, where is it? Why am I not hooked up to it automatically I've lived here for almost 2 years. I'v just basically been bumming off of people's Wi-Fi around me but they all kicked me off.

The interner should be a white cable with a little needle tip coming out of one of your walls. You need to buy a router (which you'll need to pay for) and plug it into the wall. The job of the router is to connect you to the internet (which is that white wire). You can connect to it remotely (using wi-fi) or you ca plug directly into the router with a an ethernet/LAN cable. Both will connevt you to the router which should connect you to the white wire (which is internet)
