Example

    #include <SPI.h>
    #include <WiFi.h>

    char ssid[] = "myNetwork";          //  your network SSID (name)
    char pass[] = "myPassword";   // your network password

    int status = WL_IDLE_STATUS;
    IPAddress server(74,125,115,105);  // Google

    // Initialize the client library
    WiFiClient client;

    void setup() {
      Serial.begin(9600);
      Serial.println("Attempting to connect to WPA network...");
      Serial.print("SSID: ");
      Serial.println(ssid);

      status = WiFi.begin(ssid, pass);
      if ( status != WL_CONNECTED) {
        Serial.println("Couldn't get a wifi connection");
        // don't do anything else:
        while(true);
      }
      else {
        Serial.println("Connected to wifi");
        Serial.println("\nStarting connection...");
        // if you get a connection, report back via serial:
        if (client.connect(server, 80)) {
          Serial.println("connected");
          // Make a HTTP request:
          client.println("GET /search?q=arduino HTTP/1.0");
          client.println();
        }
      }
    }

    void loop() {
       if (client.available()) {
        char c = client.read();
        Serial.print(c);
      }

      if (!client.connected()) {
        Serial.println();
        Serial.println("disconnecting.");
        client.stop();
        for(;;)
