I AM TRYING TO CONNECT ANOTHER TO THE INTERNET. MY EXISTING COMPUTER IS CONNECT TO THE INTERNET BY A WAN MINIPORT. HOW DO I CONNECT THE NEW COMPUTER TO THE INTERNET.

So you connect to a wireless router, right? If your new computer also has wireless then you simply need to connect with the same settings as your other computer.

If your new computer just has an Ethernet port, and your router has and open Ethernet port, then you can connect with a cable, or you can purchase a wireless USB adapter and use the same settings as your other computer.
