Hello, i havent posted here before, ive been googling for hours on this issue and i would like to think i know a little amount about computers but this has be stumped..
I purchased this pc awhile back, cyberpower pc gaming computer (desktop) and its always been ran on an ethernet.. until i moved. now i want to run it wireless but have run into an issue.
when i go to networks and connections it shows "Ethernet" and "VPN" nothing for wireless, ive searched everywhere for a wireless option, it doesnt exist. When i googled this people keep saying it has to do with a missing or old driver, I followed the tutorials only to find that my drivers seem fine as far as i can see, i cant locate a wireless driver though(unless its named weird) is it possible to get a custom built pc without a wireless option?(bought this brand new off newegg) im so confused, currently just hard wiring it through the house which looks horrible so i would like to get this sorted out as quick as possible, thank you so much
Edit: suppose i could post the computer specs.
