Those questions depend completely on how the wifi network you're trying to connect to is setup.

Settings > Wi-Fi > Tap your network name under Choose a Network. Enter the network password (if it asks for one, and I would hope it does) and then you should be connected.

If your network name does not appear it probably means you're not broadcasting your SSID. In this case, tap Other and enter the info manually.

How did you connect your laptop to the wireless network?

Whatever the answer to that question is, is what you need to do for the iPhone.
