A laptop new enough to run Windows 7 will have a built-in wireless adapter so you can connect to a wireless router without cables.

Your computer has a wired connection so that you can plug directly into your internet source via a network cable (CAT5/CAT5E or CAT6 cable with an RJ-45 tip which is exactly like a phone plug only larger)

If you are trying to connect to a wireless connection, as Saga lout mentioned, you have one built in to your computer. There is a physical switch to enable or disable your wireless: Sometimes this is an actual switch on the outside of your laptop case otherwise it could be accessed by a function key command (you will notice that some of the keys have a different colored icon or logo next to the primary Key Letter/Number. Many times this is either a darker Gray or blue) But it will have a little wireless icon which varies depending on the manufacturer of your laptop:

So after you've verified that you have your wireless enabled, then in the lower right of your screen (system tray, next to your clock) there will be a little white icon that looks like a monitor with a plug on the left side, you can click on this and view any availabe wireless networks that you can connect to
