And so sorry I'm completely stupid when it comes to technology. You may be able to see the mobile hotspot as a WiFi connection, although some of the ones I’ve seen require using some sort of client application.

Ok it's running on os x 10.4 tiger and I was able to make it passed the password problem I reset it then it went to a welcome screen and asks a few questions one of the questions is how do I connect to internet well I only have a mobile hotspot and no matter what I select I can't get passed this problem. And so sorry I'm completely stupid when it comes to technology.

It would help if you provided some basic information like what operating system it's running. If it happens to be Mac OS X 10.3 "Panther", you may be in luck. If not, I'm sure you can locate the corresponding recipe now that you know what to look for. Reset OS X Panther password without the Install CD https://miketelahun.wordpress.com/2012/11/08/reset-os-x-panther-password-without-the-install-cd/ Alternatively, you can reinstall the OS.
