Question Help Me Please.

hello

i recently bought my husband an iphone. its unlocked and came with i think its called a nextsim generation 4 chip. we have tmobile and when i turned it on its fine. you can make and recieve calls. but when i try to go onto youtube, the internet, maps, etc...it says theres no connection.

now i know NOTHING about wifi. we have internet at home, but it isnt wireless. i was at someone elses house, who has wireless...and it detected the connection, but wouldnt let me join the network. it said the password was wrong which it wasnt. i talked to geek squad, and they said it would cost 129 bucks to have someone hook it up and show me how to do it.

now do i need to get wifi for it to work?
i know people who bought an iphone from apple, and they get a connection all over. and if it is that we need to buy it for the house..when he leaves the house, will he still be connected?!?!

please help me. i know nothing like i said about wifi, or even iphones for that matter.

thanks alot : )

I posted a reply on another thread where you posted the same thread. You shouldn't post the same question in multiple threads. FYI.
