No wirelessN card? How do you access internet? Plug-in?
1419233
The desktop does not come with a wireless N card built in. In my case, I used a wireless N USB adapter, but it would be best if you are able to directly connect an ethernet cable from your router. Something to note is that although the wireless adapter worked perfectly fine if connected to the front USB ports, for some odd reason, connecting to the back USB ports would result in some occasional interference.

No wireless here. However, there's an inexpensive solution, actually 2. You can buy a USB adapter, or a PCIe adapter. The USB is simpler to install but slower. The PCIe is a small amount harder to install, due to it being installed INTO the computer, but it's much faster.

This was the only disappointing aspect of this model and maybe why it was so inexpensive, this appears to be a model you plug into your modem.

I didn't need a network card, and mine connects to the Internet. There is an ethernet port, as you can see.

This device takes the place of a wireless card (if your computer has a card, or you do not use wireless, you do not need this adapter). Use a vacant USB port and then follow the onscreen steps. You will need to press and hold a startup buttonand (probably) reboot your wireless router to get a link. The reset and link steps may need to be repeatedfor any automatic updates/restarts that you have scheduled for your computer. Customer service/supportfor this device is pretty crappy.

How does everyone solve this I wonder! It's a real pain because wireless access points don't generally have a useable Ethernet connection. I ended up buying a devolo plug starter kit that sends the Internet around the house electric circuit. It was pricey (nearly £100 - am in uk) but it literally plugged in and worked.

You need to have a wifi router of some kind if you want to connect to anything. However, there is a USB port. You might try hooking up a USB hub or something, and run a conventional wired network instead. I have not tried that. I generally hang this off a television (literally) and hook up a mouse to the USB port. Then I can watch things like Youtube and Netflix with it.

It will need to be plugged in. The only wireless adapters I can think of are chromechast and the allshare dongle.

There's a USB port but no built-in wifi, etc. Also, it needs to be plugged in to household current so it's not mobile itself

there is a wireless port (number 9)on the back of the computer for a wireless plugin. Mine came with my Samsung. If you have that plugin you can connect wireless devices.

Update: This thread got me wired just now...Wireless is in the works. [ndiswrapper isn't so friendly to this one for some reason - perhaps I nabbed the wrong wireless driver..]http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=7409939

No, this wireless card issue has not been addressed in the version of the computer that I have. I have my computer one floor and several walls from the router and the internal wireless just doesn't have enough power to supply what I need. I have instead put a USB wireless N adapter on. That has served me well so far and the USB adapter isn't expensive. I will say that other than the wireless thing, I am very satisfied with this computer. It has a lot of power for the money.

I have looked at the user's guide and see no reference to it having wireless capabilities.

Ditto Mark Cook's response. You can get a wi-fi card for the mother board or Linkys makes a USB plug in wi-fi adapter. Hope this helps.JD Ennis

No wireless network adapter. Just wired Ethernet 10/100/1000 Base-T with RJ-45 connecter and USB.

No built-in wifi, you'll need either a PCI card or USB dongle if you want WiFi.

Use another computer to download the wireless drivers (and the rest of the drivers while you're at it). Transfer them over with a flash drive, and install them.

Dear customer, this computer does not have a built in wireless card. It comes with onboard Broadcom® 5754 Gigabit Ethernet which will provide high speed DSL cable connection to internet. This computer can easily be made wireless ready using a WIFI USB adapter which can be found for $10-$15 on amazon.
