    Wifi Doesn't Work but Works Fine on iPhone?

    When I am at home, the Internet works fine. The worst that happens is it lags to load for a sec and then shows up, but easily managable, but for some reason, every time I go to my parents' place, the Internet will not work on my computer. What makes no sense is if I use my phone, it works fine...
