thank you!

#include <wifi.h>

char ssid[] = "enter ssid";                     // network ssid (name)

int status = wl_idle_status;                     // wifi radio's status

void setup() {
  //initialize serial , wait port open:
  serial.begin(9600);
    // check presence of shield:
   
  delay(10000);
 
  if (wifi.status() == wl_no_shield) {
    serial.println("wifi shield not present");
    // don't continue:
    while(true);
  }

  // attempt connect wifi network:
  while ( status != wl_connected) {
    serial.println(ssid);
    status = wifi.begin(ssid);

    // wait 10 seconds connection:
    delay(1000);
  }

  // once connected :
  serial.print("you're connected network");
  printcurrentnet();
  printwifidata();
}

void loop() {
  // check network connection once every 10 seconds:
  delay(10000);
  printcurrentnet();
}

void printwifidata() {
  // print wifi shield's ip address:
  ipaddress ip = wifi.localip();
  serial.print("ip address: ");

  serial.println(ip);
}

void printcurrentnet() {
  // print ssid of network you're attached to:
  serial.print("ssid: ");
  serial.println(wifi.ssid());
}

insure shield firmly inserted uno. icsp pins spi data lines, insure connected fully.

if have sd card in shield's slot, remove it.
