Installing on computer that does not have internet access

I brought a computer home from work that had been networked with a cable.  Running Windows 10.

I work on wifi at home and bought the Netgear AC600.to allow wifi on the computer.  The computer currently does not have internet access.  Can someone please explain how to install on a computer without internet access?  No CD was provided with the adapter.

Thank you.

    Download the drivers and software to a USB drive somewhere else. Then plug the USB drive into the PC at home. Install the drivers and software from that.

     

    Visit the support pages:

    Support | NETGEAR

    Feed in your model number and check the documentation for your hardware.

    That page will also have any software, firmware and drivers for your device.

    If you don't have easy access to a PC with a USB drive, you can download the files to a mobile phone and then transfer them to your PC with a USB link or whatever you use to wire a phone to a PC.
