I just moved in a student dorm room and I have problems setting up a wireless connection. I already contacted the broadband provider and, connecting the laptop to the ethernet port in the wall with a wired connection, Internet works
What sort of Internet is this? It sounds like plain Ethernet rarer than DSL or Cable.
If so, then your D6200 needs tweaking if it can work at all.
The D6200 is a modem/router. It is designed to connect to a DSL service over an old style telephone line.
You have two options with it. Bypass the modem bit and use it in router only mode, or set it up as a wireless access point (AP).
Your choice depends on the first question, what sort of Internet do you have? If the wire in your room comes out of a router, then try the AP route.
I have no idea what this means:

You can connect the laptop with the D6200?
The bottom line is that your D6200 is not designed for your use. It might work, but we don't know what your Internet connection is, or even what you want the router to do. Ethernet? Wifi?
