Windows 7: No wireless connection option?

Hello!



I purchased an ASUS A55A series laptop today and I cannot access the internet...well wireless-ly.
The little icon on the bottom is an image of a cable instead of the wifi bars. I opened Network and Sharing, but it says I can only connect to a broadband. When I try to connect to a network, it does not give me the option for a wireless connection. I also troubleshooted and it suggested to plug in a cable. I did go to Device Manager and it has the Realtek thing under Network but it was the only driver it had. Does this mean I don't have a wireless adapter? I thought the wireless stuff was already installed. And I'm pretty sure there's nothing wrong with my router since my old laptop and my brother's laptop is working fine. Please help! Thank you in advance!

Hi all!

@Debbie B: I followed your instructions and it worked like a charm! (Although I had to download two different drivers and I kinda freaked out when the first one didn't work lol.) Thank you so much!
@rraod: Thank you for the link! I shall have that saved as a bookmark or something so I can look back at it if I ever have troubles again.

Thank you all once again and have a wonderful day!
