Helo Marcus1,
Welcome to the Forum.
You need to provide a bit more detail - what actions are you actually undertaking to connect to the internet and what if any dialogue boxes show - and what are they telling you? What level/type of encryption are you using on your router? Tell us as much as you can about how you are trying to connect and what exactly seems to be failing.
If it isn't broken then don't try to fix it!

@Marcus1

Go to settings > Wireless & networks > Wi-Fi settings > Add WiFi network - Enter your SSID (printed on label on router usually) - change security to the one your router is using (your router should be password protected with WPA/WPA2 PSK if it isnt follow your routers instructions to change this) - then enter your password (printed on label on router usually) and save - you should now connect automatically. P.S make sure WiFi is ticked
