Your Mobo does not come with a Wifi adapter. You will have to buy one and add it using the PCI slots. This is a common mistake made by first time builders.
I recommend this one: http://pcpartpicker.com/part/tp-link-wireless-network-card-archert9e
If that is over your budget you can purchase this one:

Once you install it you should be able to connect to wifi. You should be happy since ethernet is faster anyways.
