Kowalski's seems to be popular and good. (I don't have any experience with it myself though.) I have a list of 65xx assemblers in the "assemblers" portion of my links page, at
http://wilsonminesco.com/links.html#assem . Most of them are free. There's more info on Kowalski's at
http://www.exifpro.com/utils.html, and it's all on github too, at
https://github.com/mikekov/6502 .
Our own member Andrew Jacobs (forum name BitWise) has what appears to be an excellent macro assembler, As65, with even program-flow-control structures built in, at
http://www.obelisk.me.uk/dev65/as65.html .

also if you could provide instructions or where to get instructions on how to use it properly
The
6502 primer has a section called, "Program-Writing: Where Do I Start?" at
http://wilsonminesco.com/6502primer/PgmWrite.html, answering a forum post question years ago: "and no one really ever tells you in what program do you put the code." There's also the programming-tips section at
http://wilsonminesco.com/6502primer/PgmTips.html .

my laptop's wifi doesn't work and has to be plugged in the router, dont ask
This desktop I'm using has a wired connection too, and no wireless. No problem. Connections always used to be wired. Nothing wrong with it; in fact, I can point you to a lot of studies showing how all this wireless stuff is slowly doing a lot of damage to our health. It does not have to be ionizing to make breaks in DNA strands. Children are much more vulnerable than adults though.
Edit: I just remembered to add that our WiFi router also goes down for several minutes at a time many times every day. A watchdog timer brings it back each time, so it's just a minor annoyance.
