Have any of you used a USB wifi adapter for a desktop?

I very often use my cellphone as a tether. It works pretty well. Yours probably has that option, so I don't see any reason that you should buy an extra device that does the same thing, especially if you are planning to get a long cable soon enough anyway.

EDIT: I think I misunderstood. I haven't had a desktop in years. I guess they don't come with the ability to detect wifi still?

They do but mine doesn't. I opted out of it because I prefer wired so much but then I ran into this situation with my apartment.
