Something like this might do the trick:
It allows you to connect a device that only has an ethernet port to WiFi. Then you can join your Hue bridge to the campus wifi and your other devices on the campus wifi should be able to access it.
Of course, nothing is guaranteed, but Amazon has a fairly generous return policy so you shouldn't be screwed if it doesn't work.
Well that printer also has a wireless version. Were you forced to purchase the particular model (or perhaps you already had it)?
It's no surprise that your wired network doesn't connect to your public network but it is surprising that it's not connected to your POS network. I assume you have POS terminals that are connected via Ethernet. Randomly connecting things isn't going to help you solve your issue.
You can't hardwire a tablet (well you can but it's an iffy prospect as neither Android nor iOS really support wired connection) HOWEVER you can easily connect your wired Printer to a wireless network using an Ethernet-WiFI Bridge.
Here's a low cost one ($35) from IOGEAR.
You plug in the Printer to the bridge using an Ethernet cable and then usually there's some software you have to run on a laptop or tablet that connects to the bridge and configures it. Once that's set the printer thinks it's directly connected to a wired network.
It's easy to set up so you shouldn't have any trouble.
Frankly you shouldn't have any trouble finding someone knowledgable to help you for the cost of a couple of meals. Ask around.
I assume this is for the Hue bridge since you're posting in the Hue subreddit. Something like this should work: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B004UAKCS6/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_kqpbBbTMC0JYK
Or, as others have suggested, get a network extender/wireless bridge with ethernet ports.
Yeah I wanted something like that too! This is the closest solution that doesn't need to be plugged into the wall it's just usb for power Ethernet for data but the Netgear works better for me! https://www.amazon.com/IOGEAR-Universal-Ethernet-Adapter-GWU627/dp/B004UAKCS6
Ideally, you will want to run Ethernet to the printer. This is the fastest and most reliable way to get the printer connected. You can try an Ethernet to Wi-Fi adapter (see below), however they are not supported and may not be fully compatible with your printer. Good luck.

This setup is in the basement, where network cabling is impossible to get to without drilling through flooring and creating a huge mess. That's where the powerline adapters come in.
However, on my quest to research wireless bridges, I stumbled on this:
IOGEAR Universal Ethernet to Wi-Fi N Adapter for Home or Office, GWU627 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B004UAKCS6/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_-DwYzbRWNHWN3
It claims to turn any wired device into a wireless device. Could I plug this into the WAN port on my router and bypass the Powerline completely? The wireless reception down there has never been too bad, currently I use it since the wired connection is so slow and so far it's pretty decent.
I'm not sure if it can do both. Although, an option you may be interested is you can get an the IOgear universal adapter. This will connect to the hotspot via wifi and allow you to connect via an ethernet port.
You just need a wireless bridge. It connects to your WiFi network and allows you to connect wired devices.
Something like this: https://www.amazon.com/IOGEAR-Universal-Ethernet-Adapter-GWU627/dp/B004UAKCS6/ref=sr_1_9?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1487095682&sr=1-9&keywords=wireless+bridge
You could look to see if your wireless router has a bridge mode, and if not perhaps you could install third party firmware like DD-WRT or Tomato that would give you that feature.
You can get one of these adapters. Plug the Ethernet cable to the adapter and ST hub. Join the adapter to your wireless hotspot.
I have one similar to this plugged into my audio receiver and it works perfectly.
USB is extremely common and meant for external peripherals, so it only makes sense that most wifi adapters use a USB port.
There are adapters that use an ethernet port, however. For example: https://www.amazon.com/IOGEAR-Universal-Ethernet-Adapter-GWU627/dp/B004UAKCS6
Alternatively, if size isn't an issue, any WiFi access point set in "client mode" will essentially do the same thing.
Finally, the latest RPi comes with onboard WiFi, completely eliminating the problem.
Another option, presuming that /u/TheRufmeisterGeneral's statement is correct in that the printer has an ethernet port and that you really need wireless, is to use an ethernet to wifi adaptor such as http://www.amazon.com/IOGEAR-Universal-Ethernet-Adapter-GWU627/dp/B004UAKCS6 (Not a recommendation, just did an amazon search)
sooo... if you can scope out of there is a spare ethernet port in the room you can get one of these which will enable you to have your own wifi!
edit to add: I totally get you on the brain atrophy. I'm a project manager. I already talked to my boss about the (hopefully unlikely) even that I'd have to go on bed rest that I would WANT to keep working (even if its from bed) because otherwise I'd go insane.
Few different build variants depending on your cousin's needs.
Note that this motherboard only has 2 PCIe slots, so you might not want to use a wifi adapter that's PCIe (I personally am partial to this IOGEAR ethernet-wifi adapter, but it's only 150mbps and the 300mbps version is more expensive at $44 bucks).
Special mention that the RAM is known to work with the motherboard.

You can use a simple ethernet to WiFi adapter like either of these from IoGear:
I got the same one from Amazon for $12 cheaper than what the 4GCommunity offers on their website.
Dead link.
Something like this might do the trick.
This caught my eye, too, and sent me searching.
Per here, you can still rig up PXE over wireless. There are at least two ways of doing this:
a) Acquire an Ethernet-WiFi adapter ($34 at a glance)
b) Retrofit a WRT-supported router
In the case of the latter, which is the cheapest method, there are routers like this one that can probably be made to work for $18 or less, and then there are used routers anywhere from $5–15 both online and sometimes locally. Even better if you've already got access to old routers laying around in storage.
Assuming a capable router is present:
Flash DD-WRT/OpenWRT/etc
Configure as a client and connect to the main hotspot
Connect the machine's ethernet port to the router
(Optional) Disassemble the bridge and install its internals within the PC
...and you're set.
edit: mode
Yes, they have devices specifically for this. Here's one from amazon: https://www.amazon.com/IOGEAR-Universal-Ethernet-Adapter-GWU627/dp/B004UAKCS6
If your device has a USB port though, it might be easier to use a usb wifi adapter like another comment said. Something like this: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01DKDAUAS

We use these at work, they give pretty good signal
You can use a wireless bridge, I've used them multiple times with standalone wired only devices to great success.
https://www.amazon.com/IOGEAR-Universal-Ethernet-Adapter-GWU627/dp/B004UAKCS6
Hope this helps!
Something like this? https://www.amazon.com/IOGEAR-Universal-Ethernet-Adapter-GWU627/dp/B004UAKCS6
Is it possible to connect the mixer to the wireless?
If not natively, with something like this? https://www.amazon.com/IOGEAR-Universal-Ethernet-Adapter-GWU627/dp/B004UAKCS6
No this will not work in any way shape or form. The Ethernet jack on the camera is expecting an Ethernet signal your usb wireless adapter will out put a USB signal. You will be putting a USB signal into a device expecting an Ethernet signal. These are options that will get you what you need Wireless Bridge or Power Line Ethernet
It's an EyeDro.

Basically, you install it in your load panel and then it gives you an estimate of how much power you use. It's not 100% accurate, maybe 95% or so (?), but it's good enough.
Don't get the wireless version, instead get the basic one and a wireless extender like this which is cheaper (although now you have two devices to plug in).
I now also have an Ecobee3 thermostat which has awesome reports, much better than my old Nest.
i have no idea if these work well, but it has to be better than usb.
I just had a similar situation, and my solution was to buy 1 each of these adapters, I bought from different vendors so I could gauge which one I like best as I may buy another in the future for another application:
IOGEAR Universal Ethernet to Wi-Fi N Adapter https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004UAKCS6/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&th=1
MIKROTIK MAP LITE
http://www.doubleradius.com/Manufacturers/Wireless-for-Home-and-Office/MikroTik-mAP-lite.html
I'm only pushing management traffic over this link, so nothing bandwidth intensive, but I think this will work fine for my application.
You could use something like this or use an old spare router with wifi.
Thanks. So, my Blu-Ray player doesn't have wifi, now that's not that big of an issue, I usually just unplug the HDMI cable and hook up my laptop. Granted, I could also just get an Ethernet cable, but I don't know if I want to mess with contacting the college to set up a physical connection (it's probably not actually that hard and I could always get something like this thing from amazon, but whatever, I'm getting off topic). Anyway, my main question is about headphones. I would need something like this as well as an additional HDMI cable to do what I was asking, correct? I just want to be sure, I bought the adapter without really looking into it and I want to be sure before buying anything else. So, to be absolutely clear, I would connect and HDMI cable from my Blu-Ray or computer to the stereo, use my adapter with the RCA output, and use a second HDMI cable to hook up to my TV, which I mute. I'm pretty sure I got it, I just like to make sure, I apologize for being redundant, but I am very thankful for your answer.

This? It takes a LAN Cable and sends the signal as wifi.
then the you need the first device for your phone: http://www.amazon.com/IOGEAR-Universal-Ethernet-Adapter-GWU627/dp/B004UAKCS6
But not that I understand the scenario better, an Powerlan adapter would be better for you: http://www.amazon.com/ZyXEL-Powerline-Gigabit-Wall-plug-PLA4225KIT/dp/B0061308MA/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1457079884&sr=8-1&keywords=dlan
If you don't know what powerlan is have a look here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dC8WoQ4GuLg
Seems overly complicated - I'd just get your router to use the wifi for Internet access.
Use something like this: http://www.amazon.com/IOGEAR-Universal-Ethernet-Adapter-GWU627/dp/B004UAKCS6
Then you basically want a Wireless bridge.
E.g.:

Try this thing: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B004UAKCS6
As far as the WEP thing goes, I would suggest getting something like this or this. It will let you (after it is configured from a pc) plug it into your ethernet port of the xbox and can connect to your current setup with up to wpa2 encryption.
A second route would be if you happen to find that your wireless network needs some extending, you can get one of these and have it setup next to the xbox. Then you can just run an ethernet cable from the extender to the xbox. This way you have a dual purpose for your purchase. Extending your wireless network range and also giving whatever room it is in 4 hardwired ports.
A third route would be to take any old router you have, set it up as a bridge (on most you just disable DHCP and NAT, and then connect the hardwire from router1 to port 4 on router2(aka bridge 1)) with a hardwire running back to the first router. Place router 2 next to the xbox and hardwire the xbox to router 2.
You will want to install XBMC4XBOX (not really install more like ftp over). It is a specially maintained version for the XBOX hardware. It is illegal for the dev team to release it technically because of the use of the xbox SDK to compile. You can compile yourself, or look into the xbins ftp server for binarys. I haven't messed with XBMC4XBOX in over a year so im not so sure on how the plugins function currently. Id imagine most will work since its all running on python. Don't expect it to play any HD content though.
