Since this motherboard has built in wifi, will it work like a wireless router for other network equipment

If you mean will it become a router. NoIf you mean will it work like a laptop with wifi. Yes
1636801
Yes... I have set it up as a wireless hot spot... It included two little antennas... Also the MB doesn't need to be hardwired to a router... You can receive and send wifi :0)
1636802
I don't believe so. You might be able to find some broadcasting antennas for it, but as far as I know, it can only receive a signal.

No, it only has a 10/100 hard connection. It has one pci slot if you want to add a WiFi card however.

It has built in wireless, must be on the motherboard as I didn't see a separate card for it.

depends, if used on a windows system, yes. if you use a linux distro, you could turn the system into an access point with this device and receive wifi clients (and if that box has Internet on another network device, pass it through this device).

it all depends on the wifi card that you are looking at but this board has of several different PCIe connectors that will fit most wifi cards.. this board also have free PCI connectors. So your wifi I can either be a PCIe mini-slot or PCIe 1x slot or a PCIe 4x slot or PCIe 16x slot. There aew also 3 PCI slot connectors. This board will handle most wifi cards available. Just be sure that it has a slot that will fit the connectors on this board that I have mentioned.

Yea I believe any router will work with this. Once you connect it to a router by Ethernet cord the wifi should start running after you set it up

Yes, networking is built into the motherboard on this model, either 10/100 or gigabit depending on the configuration.

Typically, you use the USB port to connect the router to the Internet and then other devices connect via WiFi to access the Internet and the USB shared storage. As for the scenario you described, I doubt it will work...

I'm not really proficient with this network wireless stuff. My configuration is a Macbook with 802.11a,b,g,n and and Air Express which works like your router so I suspect it is a fit, but I think I looked it up on the Asus site to confirm it myself. Bad habit not to write down notes on these system upgrades.

No, just hardware the network or like others have said, use any 3rd party wireless adapter.

Yes. Almost any motherboard made in the last 10 years has built in Ethernet as does this board.
1338831
No. This will provide a computer with a wireless (WiFi) connection to a wireless router or access point.

Should, as long as you have an open slot on the motherboard. The motherboard makes it plug-n-play. Remember there's also memory on board the wifi network card.

On my model, NT-WRPT there is on in put port for the internet so I do not see how this would work for you. My opinion is to go a more traditional wifi router.

No it is a router. Some form of wifi or ethernet has to be available For it to do its job.

Ditto Mark Cook's response. You can get a wi-fi card for the mother board or Linkys makes a USB plug in wi-fi adapter. Hope this helps.JD Ennis

Yes, we installed this in an Intel NUC & currently use it with a N wifi network.
