How to connect my wifi ?

There are two computers in my room.
A  is connected to wireless router +adsl modem ,gateway is 192.168.1.1 ,localhost is 192.168.1.100.
Security Options is none

The pci wifi receiver was installed on computer B.
My android phone can connect wifi .
In computer B's console,

    iw dev wlan0 scan 
    TSF: 44377007236 usec (0d, 12:19:37)
    freq: 2452
    beacon interval: 100 TUs
    capability: ESS Privacy ShortPreamble ShortSlotTime (0x0431)
    signal: -59.00 dBm
    last seen: 0 ms ago
    Information elements from Probe Response frame:

    Supported rates: 1.0* 2.0* 5.5* 11.0* 6.0 9.0 12.0 18.0

It means that wifi signal sent out by wireless router can be scanned by computer B.
No error info when to input

Re: How to connect my wifi ?

You need to get an IP address as well - generally this would be done with dhcpcd.

Please follow the wiki page and provide the output of diagnostics in [ code ] tags.  For example, after you use the iw command to connect, what is the output of `ip a`?
