# Connecting to the network

You can plug an ethernet cable in your small computer and LudOS will automatically connect to internet and get an address using DHCP.

If you have a Wi-Fi router at home, you can also go to Settings and connect to your local Wi-Fi network:

This will require a password, and some routers might need that you press a button to allow any new device to connect.

If it works, you will see a **Connected** label in front of the Wi-Fi settings.

If it doesn't, ethernet is your best friend.
