I assembled a system using an X99-A motherboard. I’m repeatedly told it includes built-in Wi-Fi. I purchased the board from eBay and received only the IO shield and the board itself. I keep seeing mentions that the X99-Deluxe comes with wireless antenna components, so I’m checking if the X99-A has the same feature set. I’m currently trying to configure Wi-Fi and need all the guidance possible. Would anyone be able to assist?

It might still lack the available space for a WiFi card beneath the IO shield, since the shield doesn’t include antenna ports and would require some homemade adjustments. A better option is to use a PCIe card that comes fully assembled.
