Ok, I have what is probably a stupid question but i'm not finding an answer.
Mobo's with built in Wi-Fi; do they only receive a signal allowing them to connect to wireless internet routers and game controllers and such or can they also prodcast? i.e. can I send a wireless video signal from my pc to my wi-fi ready TV? Will it allow the PC to work as the wireless router for the house?

Mobos that comes with Wifi will let you do all the same things that you could if you bought a separate Wifi card (or had an ethernet connection for that matter). I have no idea what kind of capabilities your TV has, but yes in theory you could stream from your PC to your TV if they're both on the same Wifi network. You can't use your PC as a router though...
