I have just build a new PC, which the motherboard does not have a wireless card, and I do not have a wireless USB dongle.

I want to connect my PC to the internet, so I had a 'Cat5e', or on my motherboard, 'WAN' cable, so I plugged one end into my PC and another into the WiFi, and I cannot connect to the internet, is there a fix for this or will I have to buy a USB wifi dongle?

I do not own a modem. The WAN cable is plugged into the Mobo.

Specs;

MSI B250-M PRO-VD
CORSAIR CX550M
BT Home Hub 5.0.

Only 2 other appliances are connected to the wifi.
