I can not connect to the internet with my zeepad. I bought both of my daughters the same model tablet and they can get on the internet with their tablets.

Most tablets connect to the internet through WIFI. Only a few can use SIM card to connect through 3G or 4G data connection. For WIFI connection, you must have a WIFI router at home. You will normally password-protect the WIFI rounter. To connect the tablet to the internet through the WIFI-router that is in operation, you will configure its WIFI settings to match the router's password. This will be done by going to tablet's Setting, turn on WIFI, click on your router in the list of detected routers, enter the password when prompted. Ensure that Connected is shown against your router. You can then browse the internet.

I wifi in my house for multable devices,the Tablet is one of them.well when I powered the tablet on it ask me for password or pin the only problem with that is I never set on up and I have no book for

Probably your WiFi home network is password-protected. You are asked to enter the network password , not the tablet's password. If you are asked about a pin, it means that the tablet is trying to connect to WiFi in WPS (WiFi Protected Setup) mode. You may find the network password in the set up guide of the wireless modem/router. The pin may be on a sticker affixed to the router. You enter the password or the pin, not both.

How to I put data onto my tablet when I don't have wifi

You don't need internet, to put data on a tablet (or on a computer) entering data, is typing a note, or making a picture. Then save it. That is how data becomes data. But if you want to receive data from the internet, most tablets need a wireless connection. And unless you have a hotspot close to home, the only way would be to visit a Starbucks or McDonald, where they offer free WiFi, while you are consuming there.
More and more firms offer free WiFi, when you are visiting them.
If you want WIFi at home, you first need an internet connection. If you already have an internet connection for a computer, you could buy a wireless router and connect it to the same router you already use for the computer. If you don't have an internet connection, you should get one. Most providers, now offer routers with WiFi and cable connection.
Sometimes if you have a smart phone, with internet connection, you can setup our phone as a hotspot for your tablet. But some providers try to block that.

And soem tablets do have a possibility (they cost more) to insert a sim card. For those you goto a provider and arrange a data plan for the tablet.

I hope this helps. Make sure you don't have a WiFi router, before you buy one.

I was not connect wifi with coby kyros tablet

Talking of setting up your connection, you mean the connection to a wireless access point you own. The wireless router must be yours, with your settings. You and only you should know the name f the connection and the way it is protected like WPA and the password.
If you don't have a wireless router, you can't setup a Wifi connection.
It is all in your manual belonging to the tablet and for the router there is a manual to. If you can't understand what one or both manuals are telling you it has no use typing here what is in the manuals. Please ask for help close by you.

How to connect wifi network in archos 28 internet tablet

This is normal. To save energy, the ARCHOS always starts up with the WiFi set to off. You must manually use the Fn-F3 keys if you want to activate the WiFi connection.
I cannot connect to the Internet over WiFi, what's wrong? Make sure that your WiFi is activated. This can be turned on and off with the blue function key pressed down and then the F3 key. The blue WiFi indicator just below the touch-pad will light indicating that it has been turned on.
My WiFi router/modem is on and working, but it does not show up in the list of wireless networks. What's wrong? It could be that the WiFi modem/router is hiding its SSID. This is done for security purposes sometimes. You can either change this on the WiFi modem/router (see its instructions) so that it broadcasts its SSID (and then you'll see it in the list on your ARCHOS 10) or you can go into the advanced settings of the Wireless Network Connection screen to the Wireless Networks tab and 'add' a new connection. You will need to know the SSID name and its other connection parameters.
