Missing "Wireless Connection" Icon

In order to connect to my wireless connection, Windows says that I need to
"View Network Connections" and then click on the "Wireless Connection" icon.

When I open Network Connections - I see icons for Local Area Connection (my
ethernet cable) and 1394 Connection. There is no Wireless Connection icon.

Any ideas for how I can find that icon? Do I need to reinstall something?

Thanks

Hello Keith,

Do you have a wireless network card installed? Also have a look here.
