Most desktop PC motherboards don't ship with WiFi, you have to install a wireless card in one of the motherboard's expansion-slots, or you can buy a USB plug-in one.

Having said that, you should really avoid using WiFi on a desktop PC if at all possible, WiFi is primarily for portable devices like laptops, tablets & smartphones, not a PC which always stays in one place. You'll get a faster and more reliable connection with an ethernet wired connection so that's what you should use if you possibly can.

Apart from anything else, you'll need to use a wired connection anyway whenever you want to re-configure any wireless settings in your router's setup utility. If you use WiFi to do it you could lose the connection and then you'll be...

Apart from anything else, you'll need to use a wired connection anyway whenever you want to re-configure any wireless settings in your router's setup utility. If you use WiFi to do it you could lose the connection and then you'll be stuck.

You'll also need to use a wired connection if you ever change your router and the new one needs setting up.

So it's always wise to have at least one computer which has a direct wired connection to the router.
