How do I connect my iPad to my internet modem?

I have an iPad 4th generation with the compatibility of Wi-Fi, and the internet works at my mom's place when I go onto her premises. But when I'm at my dad's place, the internet doesn't work at all. I can't find his server on the list of the possible show-up connection spots. He has a Dell Windows computer. I don't even remember his Wi-Fi internet username or password (which I'm not sure how to find out sadly!). His computer must be hooked up to the modem at all times to be able to receive internet access. Does that mean my iPad has to be hooked up to the internet to be able to receive internet access? Or can I even receive internet at his place at all? Does anyone know how I can figure this out?
