My motherboard,Gigabyte GA-Z68XP-UD5, from what I understand doesn't have built in WiFi. Any suggestions on a good wi-fi adapter I could install to the MB? Or is there another route I should take? All I really need it for is a setting up a wireless printer.

Thanks
 
If your printer is able to connect to the network with either a wireless connection or an Ethernet cable. Once you get the printer on the network, install the printer drivers as a network printer. There is no need for your PC to be on wireless for printing. As long as both your printer and PC are on the network, you should be able to see it as a network device.
 
No problem. If you are using Windows 7 here is how you set it up.

Hook up Printer with USB
Install drivers
disconnect Printer USB and move it to the new location and connect it to the network. Either wireless or wired internet.
Open network devices and import network printer.

You might need to modify the steps for your own printer but that is what I did for mine.

Best of luck. Post back if you are having troubles.
 
Download the driver software for the printer and follow the directions, pretty simple. It will tell you what to do to get it hooked up.
 
I haven't bought the printer yet, but when I do I will let both of you know if any problems come up, which I doubt.

Thank you both again
