do you have a wifi adapter installed?

They're called wireless adapters. I'm using this one, and have had no problems with it. Some motherboards have them built in.

 

Here's a list of adapters from PC Part Picker: http://ca.pcpartpicker.com/parts/wireless-network-card/

 

I recommend staying away from any USB based adapters, as their speeds are bottle necked by the USB interface. Instead, find one that connects via PCIe lanes.
