I have built this computer a couple months ago; it was not able to use Wifi because the computer could not recognize it. So, I put in an Ethernet cable and was able to connect with ease. Fast forward to now, I moved into a new house but I am not close to the router to place an Ethernet cable in, how would I fix this problem? I have installed all the drivers that were on the disk and it still doesn't fix the issue.

Since you built your computer, did it the motherboard come with a built-in wifi adapter or did you purchase a separate either internal or external wifi adapter (PCIe and USB come to mind)? If not, that may be your issue as you'll have nothing that can actually receive wifi signals.
The motherboard I purchased came with an internal Wifi adapter and, I don't know if this helps, but I had the motherboard about a year before it was built; I haven't built a computer before, you know. Would it be because the box the motherboard came in was opened and not used after 1 year?
So I don't give you faulty info, I have given you the specs of this motherboard:
