A USB wireless network adapter is a device that allows you to connect to a wireless network as is connected to a computer via a USB port.
A wireless adapter is a hardware device used to connect a computer system to a wireless network. It can be in the form of a USB "dongle" or an internal PCI or PCMCIA card. Most modern laptops come with an integrated wireless adapter built-in. The phrase is most commonly used for 802.11x "wifi" networks.
A WiFi adapter is a very important part of a computer system--especially on a laptop. It is the part of a computer that connects to wireless internet. Without one, you would have to plug your computer into a phone line or modem to use the internet. Just so you know, the best WiFi adapters use the 802.11n standard, but 802.11g is still a good option. 802.11n adapters are up to 5x as fast and will work up to 2x as far away from the wireless source when compared to 801.11g adapters. To get the benefits, you must buy a compatible router (802.11a/g/n).
<Update> The above answer is a little misleading. A WiFi adapter connects your computer wirelessly to a LAN (local area network) that may or may not be connected to the internet. To wirelessly connect your computer directly (so to speak) to the internet you need a wireless broadband adapter from a cellular carrier. Adapters can be PCMCIA, ExpressCard, USB or can use your WiFi to connect to a MiFi adapter which connects to your cellular carrier.
A device inserted into a computer's USB port that allows a computer to be connected to wireless internet or WiFi without a cord connecting the computer to Internet access (a router of some sort). Newer laptops don't normally require this device, as a majority have wireless radios factory installed. A WiFi USB adapter is generally used on older laptops and desktops that don't have a connection near the computer.
