i am asuming the modem does NOT have a built in wireless router, so you will need to plug the laptop into it with a wire, if the modem only has one port for this, you will need to unplug the other computer or get a router or switch.

if the computer that is plugged into it has a wireless card you can make it share internet with the laptop.
