You will need to use an Ethernet cable to access the internet.

Download the wireless driver for your particular model from the OEM of your computer.  Install it.  It that does not work, you may have a defective device.

Alternatively, you can buy a USB wireless device for about $20 that will serve you well.

The download will be a set of executable programs.  When you double-click them, they will  automatically install themselves.

Start with the Chipset drivers, then video, then your network, then wireless, and continue to do the rest.  There will be restarts required when it is needed and it  will tell you that.

When you are done, you can display the Device Management windows again and you will see the install devices then.
