The easiest way would be a USB adapter.
You could also use a wireless card that goes inside the case and has an antenna outside.
If there's a local Best Buy, CompUSA, or Circuit City they can help.

What would work the best is if you went and bought a PCI card that hooks in the slot on the mother board and that has a anttana that pocks out the back of the computer you can get on on ebay

There are network wireless cards for desktops.

Those are the most reliable.
A USB adapter is the simplest, though.
